Publishing articles in high-impact English journals is difficult for scholarsaround the world, especially for non-native English-speaking scholars (NNESs),most of whom struggle with proficiency in English. In order to uncover thedifferences in English scientific writing between native English-speakingscholars (NESs) and NNESs, we collected a large-scale data set containing morethan 150,000 full-text articles published in PLoS between 2006 and 2015. Wedivided these articles into three groups according to the ethnic backgrounds ofthe first and corresponding authors, obtained by Ethnea, and examined thescientific writing styles in English from a two-fold perspective of linguisticcomplexity: (1) syntactic complexity, including measurements of sentence lengthand sentence complexity; and (2) lexical complexity, including measurements oflexical diversity, lexical density, and lexical sophistication. Theobservations suggest marginal differences between groups in syntactical andlexical complexity.
