| 요약 | Many of the science and technology-based issues we face today have the potential to greatly impact our society and require that we make complex sets of decisions about their future development and implementation. Within the scientific community and elsewhere, there is general agreement that multiple stakeholders should be involved in any decisions about the future of these technologies to negotiate the "appropriate" role of science in society. Yet, the ways that we make decisions and process the information we come across about scientific issues are not reliant solely on knowledge of science, nor are they necessarily grounded in accurate scientific information. Questions remain about how to achieve sound science policies that include genuine public input-how can members of the public be meaningfully involved in any societal decisions about modern science, given the high levels of scientific knowledge necessary to understand modern sciences, the general spread of scientific misinformation, and the information processing mechanisms that members of the public rely on to filter information and form attitudes about science? Encouraging public engagement with science at public institutions may help redefine these institutions' roles in their communities and open pathways toward sound science policy development, including policy impacts down the line as scientists meaningfully interact with members of the public in ways that can broaden scientists' thinking about science and technology in society. In this dissertation, I address larger questions about our interactions with science. This dissertation presents three studies that investigate: 1) how people employ different mental schema (i.e., relying on scientifically-generated knowledge or religion-based beliefs) in forming stances on the origin of human life via evolution, including science deniers, and the intersection of these two sources of knowledge about the world |
