Pew Report Delves Into Scientific Attitudes
A new Pew Research Center Internet, Science & Tech division report, “An Elaboration of AAAS Scientists’ Views,” explores findings from its January 2015 surveys in more depth by examining American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) scientists’ views on major science-related issues.“A key strength of this group as a window into the views of the scientific community stems from the breadth of their disciplinary backgrounds and experiences,” the report summary notes. “At the same time, findings among AAAS members as a whole also leave important questions. For instance, do scientists who work in particular disciplines have views on issues that are different from those with other disciplinary backgrounds?” Pew intends for the AAAS responses to be “the first in a series of avenues for empirically documenting whether there are differences in views among subsets of the scientific community.” For more information, read the report.
