Scientific literacy is a vital component of national competency,and enhancing it holds great importance for both individual growth and national development. Visiting science and technology museums serves as a key avenue for enhancing citizens’scientific literacy. Analysis of data from the 13th National Civic Scientific Literacy Sampling Survey in 2023 reveals that such visits significantly enhance scientific literacy,particularly in the dimensions of scientific methods,scientific spirit,and scientific abilities. Moreover,visiting science and technology museums has a greater impact on disadvantaged groups,contributing to reducing disparities in scientific literacy across gender,urban-rural divides,and regional differences.Based on these findings,this study suggests expanding the reach of science and technology museums and enhancing their capacity to provide high-quality services. It also emphasizes the need to deepen the content of exhibitions and educational programs,with a particular focus on fostering citizens’understanding of scientific methods,scientific spirit,and scientific abilities. Additionally,it advocates for greater precision in science popularization efforts,recommending targeted exhibition and education activities that prioritize disadvantaged groups,including women,the elderly,rural populations,and residents in central and western regions.
