基于美国20年的全国调查和两项欧洲晴雨表研究，描述了公民科学素养衡量标准的历史、原理和结构。对公民科学素养指数中非常了解或中等了解的成年人比例的估计在文献中出现得更频繁，本文首次对公民科学素养进行了全面的描述和分析。希望这一分析和讨论将鼓励在更广泛的关于公众对科学和技术的理解和态度的研究中纳入和复制这一措施。
Building on two decades of national surveys in the United States and two Eurobarometer studies, the history, rationale, and structure of a measure of civic scientific literacy are described. Estimates of the proportion of adults who are very well informed or moderately well informed on the index of civic scientific literacy appear in the literature more frequently, and this paper provides the first comprehensive description and analysis of the civic scientific literacy measure. It is hoped that this analysis and discussion will encourage the inclusion and replication of the measure in a wider range of studies of the public understanding of and attitudes toward science and technology.
