Perceptions of scientists' credibility

Caption

Of the three dimensions that make up scientists' credibility, two of them -- perceptions of competence and trustworthiness -- saw a small but statistically significant drop from 2023 to 2024. The third dimension, that scientists "share my values," did not change significantly. From Annenberg Public Policy Center surveys.
