中国进入老龄化社会的科普问题及建议

Issue and suggestions for the popularization of Science since China has Entered the Aging Society

当前,中国已经迈入老龄化社会。从科学素质方面来看,中国当代老龄群体既低于外国老龄群体,也低于中国的年轻人群体。老龄人科学素质较低,难于融入当代的信息科技社会,并且也容易被伪宗教、迷信以及伪科学产品等欺骗和利用;而随着老龄人口群体的比例进一步增长,这种现象不利于中国社会的和谐稳定局面。因此,迫切需要加强针对老龄群体的科普工作,从多方面推动,切实提高老龄群体的科学素质,从而满足其多方面的需求。

At present, China has entered the aging society. From the perspective of scientific literacy, our ag- ing population is both lower than foreign aging groups and also lower than our country＇s young population. Due to the lower scientific literacy, our aging population is difficult to integrate into the information technology society, it is also likely to be deceived and used by the false religion, superstition and pseudo-science products; and under the background of the further growth of the proportion of aging population in China, it is not conducive to stabilize our social harmony. Therefore, the popularization of science focusing on the aging population needs to be done urgent- ly, promoting from many ways to improve the scientific literacy of the aging population in order to meet the various needs.
