I identify three key contributions. One is that social and behavioral scientists are able to able to analyze motivations and states of mind that contribute to the rejection of mainstream science and acceptance of pseudo-science and false claims. Two, the papers in this volume take a number of informal gleanings and suggestions, and subject them to rigorous and much-needed analysis. Three, the papers clarify that while some people who reject science may suffer pathologies, such as the desire for chaos or the expression of spite, most do not. Targeted interventions that accurately identify the target group are more likely to succeed than “one size fits all” approaches. That said, there is the potential tension between understanding science denial as a manifestation of pain and suffering versus understanding it as a problem of information deficit. The good news is that evidence suggests that most science deniers are not suffering pathologies, and that many people do benefit from good information, presented in engaging ways. Collectively these papers demonstrate that science rejection is a matter of both ignorance and willful rejection, and that both can be addressed, albeit most likely in different ways.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":17008,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Issues","volume":"81 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143865611","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Learning styles are an approach that, despite being shown to be <i>ineffective</i> at benefiting learning, is oversold in education, continuing to be extensively implemented, institutionalized, and widely believed to benefit learning. At the same time, over a century of rigorous experimental evidence indicates the effectiveness of spaced learning efforts for enhancing memory retention, skill acquisition, and coming to new understandings in the learning process, yet spacing is undersold in US education. We suggest that research on misinformation spread, pseudoscience, and science denial in domains like vaccines and climate change is relevant to misinformation spread regarding learning styles. We further suggest that the misinformation literature could inform the development of methods for decreasing the spread of misinformation concerning learning styles while increasing the spread of accurate information about spacing's benefits. These efforts could help to accelerate the rate at which the integration of new developments across disciplines can pave the way for a better integration of rigorous experimental science and policy and practice in US education.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":17008,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Issues","volume":"81 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143707576","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We find that beliefs in specific science-related conspiracy theories represent two unique factors that are (i) related to non-normative behaviors including political violence, vaccine refusal, and sharing false information online, and (ii) undergirded by a range of non-normative personality traits and attitudes.

Although the problem of the misuse of science in the courtroom has many different dimensions, one underexplored facet is the courtroom as an instance of broader structural problems in the management of authority, ignorance, and expertise. Building on this analysis, the authors identify five key scientific concepts: (1) the source of scientific authority is derived from consensus within a critical community; (2) falsification, rather than confirmation, is a primary methodological commitment; (3) uncertainty and ignorance in scientific inquiry can managed, but not eliminated; (4) there is a difference between performative, disingenuous pseudoskepticism and a skeptical, critical perspective; and (5) one should be able to recognize genuine scientific expertise and should defer to that expertise.
