Exploring Trust and Literacy in Engagement With Generative AI and Science Information Behavior
As generative AI (GenAI) becomes increasingly embedded in everyday information environments, understanding how citizens engage with this technology is critical for science communication. This study examines public engagement with GenAI in Denmark, focusing on trust, AI literacy, experience with GenAI tools, and exposure to science-related information. Denmark provides a relevant case due to its high levels of institutional and scientific trust. U…
Science Communication and Trust
Brings together contributions by a team of international scholars, addressing global issues in context • Presents various disciplinary perspectives and methods, cutting across the quantitative and qualitative divide • Provides a nuanced and contextualised approach to challenges associated with the communication of scientific expertise • This book is open access, which means that you have free and unlimited access This open access book presents gr…
The perception and use of generative AI for science-related information search
Publicly accessible large language models like ChatGPT are emerging as novel information intermediaries, enabling easy access to a wide range of science-related information. This study presents survey data from seven countries ( N = 4320) obtained in July and August 2023, focusing on the perception and use of GenAI for science-related information search. Despite the novelty of ChatGPT, a sizable proportion of respondents already reported using it…
Public Communication about Science in 68 Countries
This 68-country survey ( n = 71,922) examines science information diets and communication behavior, identifies cross-country differences, and tests how such differences are associated with sociopolitical and economic conditions. We find that social media are the most used sources of science information in most countries, except those with democratic-corporatist media systems where news media tend to be used more widely. People in collectivist soc…
Victims of Conspiracies? An Examination of the Relationship Between Conspiracy Beliefs and Dispositional Individual Victimhood
Conspiracy beliefs have been linked to perceptions of collective victimhood. We adopt an individual perspective on victimhood by investigating the relationship between conspiracy beliefs and the individual disposition to perceive and react to injustice as a victim, i.e., victim justice sensitivity (VJS). Data from two German samples (Ns = 370, 373) indicated a positive association between VJS and conspiracy mentality beyond conceptually related c…
Trust in scientists and their role in society across 68 countries
Science is crucial for evidence-based decision-making. Public trust in scientists can help decision makers act on the basis of the best available evidence, especially during crises. However, in recent years the epistemic authority of science has been challenged, causing concerns about low public trust in scientists. We interrogated these concerns with a preregistered 68-country survey of 71,922 respondents and found that in most countries, most p…
A values-based approach to knowledge in the public's representations of climate change on social media
This paper supports recent calls for research programs that explore the public's online representations of their knowledge of science-related topics, and argues that a useful line of inquiry in such a program would be to investigate how values are communicated in the public's construction of their knowledge of climate change on social media. A values-based approach to public knowledge broadens the concept of knowledge from being a cognitive and q…
Public trust and mistrust of climate science
This systematic meta-narrative literature review aims to explore the narratives of trust evident in literature on public (mis)trust relating to climate science published up until May 2021, and to present the main findings from these papers. We identified six narratives of trust: attitudinal trust, cognitive trust, affective trust, contingencies of trust, contextual trust and communicated trust. The papers’ main findings spanned theoretical conclu…
Proposing methods to explore the evolution of the term ‘mHealth’ on the Danish Web archive
This article uses Internet archives to explore the emergence and spread of the term ‘mHealth’ (mobile health technologies) in the Danish Web domain from 2006 to 2018, focusing on the actors that contributed to its evolution. We propose three methods for investigating the Web pages and Web sites that employed the term ‘mHealth’. Our findings highlight temporal developments in the use of ‘mHealth’, with diverse actors using it, though none clearly …
Multilevel structures and human agency in relation to email consultations
In recent years and throughout the developed world, policymakers have encouraged the implementation of digital patient-clinician interaction. Our focus is on the Danish general practice setting where email consultations were implemented as a mandatory service in 2009 and now constitute 21% of all consultations in general practice. Drawing upon strong structuration theory (SST), our analysis sets out to explore how email consultations are represen…
Nudging in Public Health Lifestyle Interventions
Nudging is increasingly used in public health interventions in Western societies to produced health-promoting behavior changes; however, there is lack of clarity as to what constitutes a nudge, scant knowledge of the effectiveness of nudging techniques in public health lifestyle interventions and a number of ethical and value-based concerns. The aim of this review is to address these research lacunae and identify the characteristics of nudges in …
Europeanness in Aarhus 2017’s programme of events
According to EU cultural policy, European Capitals of Culture (ECOCs) should include a 'European dimension' that promotes cultural collaborations across EU countries and highlights the diversity and similarity of European cultures. However, the European dimension has been underplayed in ECOC events (Lhdesmki, 2014b) and has not been particularly visible in official communication about ECOC events (European Commission, 2010). The purpose of this s…
Challenging violence against women
Violence against women constitutes a significant public health problem affecting an estimated 35% of women worldwide (WHO, 2013); the scale of the problem and its ongoing intransigence indicate the need for critical and transformative approaches that confront the cultures that support gender violence and lead to change. The present paper analyses a program run in Scottish primary schools for 10–12 year olds called RESPECT that was successful in m…
Audience perspectives on the European dimension in Aarhus 2017 events
The EU’s cultural policy of creating a recognisable, common European identity is exemplified by the EU’s cultural programme, European Capitals of Culture (ECOCs), whose official purpose is to highlight similarities and differences across European cultures to generate a greater sense of European identity among the citizens of Europe. To date, there has been little qualitative investigation of how ECOC attenders perceive the representation of Europ…
Risk resistance
In hegemonic risk discourses, hospital obstetric units are represented as the safest and best birth settings; however, a minority of women in England and Wales (2.3% in 2014) still opt for home birth. In this article, I analyse pro-home birth discourses on a UK-based online discussion group for pregnant women covering the period 2010–2015 and collected in March 2016, to identify how individuals making pro-home birth posts on the site represented …
Discursive construction and negotiation of laity on an online health forum
E-patients are increasingly using the Internet to gain knowledge about medical conditions, thereby problematizing the biomedical assumption that patients are ‘lay’. The present paper addresses this development by investigating the epistemic identities of patients participating on an online health forum. Using poststructuralist discourse analysis to analyze a corpus of cardiology-related threads on an ‘Ask a Doctor’ forum, we compare how patients …
Medical terminology in online patient–patient communication
BACKGROUND: Health communication research and guidelines often recommend that medical terminology be avoided when communicating with patients due to their limited understanding of medical terms. However, growing numbers of e-patients use the Internet to equip themselves with specialized biomedical knowledge that is couched in medical terms, which they then share on participatory media, such as online patient forums. OBJECTIVE: Given possible disc…
Communicating a terminal prognosis in a palliative care setting
Political argumentation and violations of audience expectations
This research analyzed the 1988 encounter between George Bush and Dan Rather on the CBS Evening News as an attack‐rebuttal sequence. The experimental study considered reactions to the 51⁄2‐minute mini‐documentary (attack) preceding the actual interview and to the live interview (rebuttal) itself. Respondents seeing the mini‐documentary only had more negative views of Bush; exposure to the mini‐documentary and interview together enhanced Bush's im…
