To investigate the civic scientific literacy，a questionnaire was designed in accordance with the Benchmarks for China’s Civic Scientific Literacy and sent to the citizens in six cities and provinces，including Beijing，Guangzhou，Chongqing，Heilongjiang，Hunan and Shanxi. 12，693 samples were collected by the local statistics authorities. This report，by analyzing the collected samples，perfects the index system for China’s civic scientific literacy and verifies the feasibility of the aforementioned Benchmarks. The report also studies both the theories and practices for improving civic scientific literacy through dissemination of scientific knowledge. <<
