Letting f(n) = A log n + t(n), where t(n) is a small additive function and A a positive constant, we obtain estimates for the quantities $∑_{x≤n≤x+H} 1/f(Q(n))$ and $∑_{x≤p≤x+H} 1/f(Q(p))$, where H = H(x) satisfies certain growth conditions, p runs over prime numbers and Q is a polynomial with integer coefficients, whose leading coefficient is positive, and with all its roots simple.
