中文摘要:

      针对科学家参与科普存在的知行反差难题，已有研究从社会维度细致地探讨了影响科学家科普动 力与意愿的多重因素。如何应对科学家科普在认知维度上的深层困境，相关分析尚显不足。本研究首先刻 画并分析了人工智能驱动科研新范式下的科学家主导的三类科普实践的新特征：科学家整合AI技术与科学 发现游戏、“AI加科学”暑期实验室、仪器与数据融入线下科普项目。进而提出这种科普新形态让公众能够 参与真实的科学认知实践，科学家会主动与公众的不同认知需求进行对话，从而有助于反哺科研、科学家 与公众协作式参与科普、推动科学家开展交叉合作科普、促进参与者技能迁移并理解科学的复杂性，实现 科学家和公众在认知－社会层面的双向受益。研究发现，整合认知与社会进路是提升科学家科普意愿和效 果、推动科普与科技创新协同的有效方式。

英文摘要:

      In addressing the discrepancy of scientists’attitudes and behaviors regarding their participation in science popularization，existing studies have explored the social dimension that influences scientists’intentions. However，they have inadequately addressed the epistemic dimension. This paper focuses on three types of practices：AI + science games developed by scientists， “AI + science”summer lab，and the integration of scientific instrumentation and data for science popularization. These examples illustrate scientists’participation in the age of AI for science. These new patterns of science popularization enable the public to engage directly in scientific epistemic practices. Consequently，scientists actively address the diverse epistemic demands of the public. Such interactions benefit scientific research，collaborative engagement of scientists and the public in scientific practice，and provide opportunities for collaboration among scientists from different fields in science popularization. Furthermore，these practices facilitate the transfer of skills and enhance the public’ s understanding of the complexities of science. Ultimately，these initiatives yield mutual epistemic and social benefits for both scientists and the public. This paper proposes it as an effective strategy for integrating epistemic and social approaches to enhance scientists’motivation to participate in science popularization，thereby fostering synergy between science popularization and technological innovation.
