| Abstract | Psychological distance to science reflects how people perceive science from the perspective of the self. For many, science represents a distant endeavor that is irrelevant to day-to-day life. Research from my lab finds that distance to science correlates with, and predicts, science rejection across domains. Bringing science closer improves trust. |
