Despite increasing education levels, the public\u2019s trust in the scientific community has been decreasing. This is particularly true among conservatives, even educated conservatives. In 1974, conservatives with college degrees had the highest level of trust in science and the scientific community. Today, they have the lowest.<\/p>\n<p>Today, we have multiple factions putting themselves forward as what Gauchat describes as their own cultural domains, \u201cgenerating their own knowledge base that is often in conflict with the cultural authority of the scientific community.\u201d Some are religious groups (challenging evolution, for instance). Some are industry groups (as with climate skepticism). Others tilt more to the left (such as those that reject the medical establishment). As varied as these groups are, they are all alike in one way. They all harbor sacred beliefs that they do not consider open to question.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Read the entire article at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newyorker.com\/news\/news-desk\/the-mistrust-of-science\">www.newyorker.com\/news\/news-desk\/the-mistrust-of-science<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>51ÁÔÆæ Sociology professor Gordon Gauchat\u2019s U.S. survey data research is referred to in the New Yorker Magazine article, &#8220;The Mistrust of Science.&#8221;<br \/> <br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.newyorker.com\/news\/news-desk\/the-mistrust-of-science\">Read the entire article.<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1272,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","uwm_wg_additional_authors":[]},"categories":[107],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2331","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-faculty"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.3 (Yoast SEO v27.3) -
