Research Abstract |
For the design and development of science communication related to risks, including nanotechnology and earthquakes, we have studied the public’s “expectations” for and “interest” in basic science fields and presented a proposal for the design of science communication based on the results. We have found it important that the “expectations” are realistic for each research field and that the “interest” is created through the dissemination of information.We have also investigated the public’s awareness of low dose exposure after the Great East Japan Earthquake. The investigation has revealed that, among families with children, the mothers in Fukushima have high anxiety and that the provision of information shouldallow the public to feel able to control their daily life.
