The channels through which science and technology(S&T)information are disseminated represent a key element of science popularization. Drawing on the findings of the 13th National Civic Scientific Literacy Sampling Survey in 2023,this study describes the current status of channels through which Chinese citizens access S&T information. It highlights the pivotal role of the Internet in these channels and illustrates the evolving trends in citizens’usage of online platforms,including social media and specialized science popularization websites. This paper compares and analyzes the differences in channels for accessing S&T information across various demographic groups,including age,gender,educational background,and urban-rural divides. It further examines the relationships between S&T information dissemination channels and citizens’characteristics and needs within the context of digital development. Key insights are presented,including the necessity of bridging the digital divide,leveraging the supplementary role of alternative channels,and addressing citizens’needs through diverse communication channels. In response to new circumstances and demands,this paper proposes the following strategies:developing diversified S&T information dissemination channels that prioritize fairness and inclusiveness,enhancing digital and intelligent communication channels to boost efficiency,and improving citizens’digital literacy and skills to strengthen their ability to critically assess information. These measures aim to better align science popularization supply with public demand,ultimately contributing to the enhancement of citizens’scientific literacy and the construction of a scientifically advanced nation.
