The bulk of the analysis relies on data from a representative sample of 2,002 adults nationwide surveyed by landline and cellular telephone in August 2014. Some analysis from other Pew Research Center surveys is included where there is relevant data.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This analysis is the last in a series; the first report, based on the same sample, compared a survey of the general public with a companion survey of American members of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). A <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/internet\/2015\/07\/01\/americans-politics-and-science-issues\/\">further analysis looked at the underpinning of the general public\u2019s views about science-related topics<\/a> based on their political and ideological outlooks, their level of education and science knowledge, their religious affiliations and differences associated with various demographic factors.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other follow-up reports focused on data from the survey of AAAS members to explore <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/internet\/2015\/02\/15\/how-scientists-engage-public\/\">the ways in which scientists interact with citizens and journalists and their reasons for doing so<\/a>. A <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/internet\/2015\/07\/23\/an-elaboration-of-aaas-scientists-views\/\">further elaboration of AAAS members\u2019 views on science-related topics<\/a> was issued earlier this year. The surveys were conducted in collaboration with the AAAS. Pew Research Center bears all responsibility for the content, design and analysis of both surveys.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This report is a collaborative effort based on the input and analysis of the following individuals.
