Citizen Science and Scientific Objectivity: Mapping Out Epistemic Risks and Benefits
Perspectives on Science 28 (5):630-654 (2020)
Abstract
. Given the importance of the issue of scientific objectivity in our democratic societies and the significant development of citizen science, it is crucial to investigate how citizen science may either undermine or foster scientific objectivity. This paper identifies a variety of epistemic risks and benefits that participation of lay citizens in scientific inquiries may bring. It also discusses concrete actions and pending issues that should be addressed in order to foster objectivity in citizen science programs.Author's Profile
