TV top source of information
News media are Finns’ most important source of scientific information. When asked to name their top two sources, respondents most frequently mentioned television (36%), newspapers (34%) and websites and search engines (23%). Only 4% of respondents said they did not search for information about science at all.
The importance of information sources varied widely by age group: people over 50 tended to rely on TV and news- papers, while those under 30 preferred websites, video services and social media. The youngest respondents consulted different sources quite evenly.*
