Another (Methodological) Look at Knowledge Gaps and the Internets Potential for Closing them
论文题名译名
另一个（方法论）看知识差距和互联网缩小差距的潜力
摘要
Members of the World Economic Forum recently identified the economic, health and knowledge disparities between the “haves” and “have-nots” in the world as one of the central risks in the global risk landscape. However, research on the role of communication in reducing knowledge disparities for emerging technologies is rare. More importantly, little research has tracked knowledge gaps about emerging technologies in representative populations over time. In this study we examine U.S. public knowledge levels across different levels of education and media use using data from two nationally representative telephone surveys. Our results show that increased science Internet and television use among low education groups can help narrow, or significantly reduce the growth of knowledge gaps that are forming based on educational disparities.
中文摘要
世界经济论坛成员最近将世界上“富人”和“穷人”之间的经济、健康和知识差距确定为全球风险格局中的核心风险之一。然而，关于传播在减少新兴技术知识差距方面的作用的研究很少。更重要的是，随着时间的推移，很少有研究追踪代表性人群中关于新兴技术的知识差距。在这项研究中，我们使用两项具有全国代表性的电话调查数据，调查了美国不同教育水平和媒体使用的公共知识水平。我们的研究结果表明，在低教育群体中增加科学互联网和电视的使用可以帮助缩小或显著减少基于教育差异形成的知识差距的增长。
