公众理解科学的早期概念受到了科学含义的狭隘框架以及科学与公众被无知和冷漠之墙隔开的假设的影响。这些假设放大了误解，导致错误的政策。现在是重新审视“公众对科学的理解”这一术语中的每一个要素的时候了。这本杂志可以通过鼓励研究公众对科学的实际而不是想象的反应，科学在公共领域的表现以及科学，技术和社会之间的相互作用来推进这一目标。
Early conceptions of the public understanding of science suffered from a narrow framing of what science means and a presumption that science is divided from its publics by walls of ignorance and indifference. Those assumptions amplified misunderstanding and led to faulty policies. It is time to reopen each element in the term “public understanding of science” to renewed reflection. This journal can advance that goal by encouraging research on actual rather than imagined public responses to science, on representations of science in the public sphere, and on interactions between science, technology and society.
