摘要 Social networking sites (SNSs) nowadays serve as important platforms for
users to engage in public affairs. This study applied the O-S-O-R model to examine
the relationship between Facebook and public participation in science and the
mediating role of users’ scientific knowledge and self-efficacy. Besides, this study
examined the relationship mentioned above by utilizing data collected from two
different populations - the general public and the users of the Facebook fan page
“Pansci.com,” the biggest scientific online group in Taiwan.
Based on a total sample size of 1,960, the result showed that scientific use of
Facebook increased scientific knowledge only for “Pansci.com” users. Besides,
scientific use of Facebook is positively associated with self-efficacy and public
participation in science in both samples. It is noteworthy that the effect of scientific
use of Facebook on self-efficacy is stronger for “Pansci.com” users but the effect of
self-efficacy on public participation in science is stronger for general users. In
addition, self-efficacy serves as a significant mediator in the relationship between
scientific use of Facebook and public participation in science in both samples.
