Science is integral to society because it can inform individual, government, corporate, and civil society decision-making on issues such as public health, new technologies or climate change. Yet, public distrust and populist sentiment challenge the relationship between science and society. To help researchers analyse the science-society nexus across different geographical and cultural contexts, we undertook a cross-sectional population survey resulting in a dataset of 71,922 participants in 68 countries.

Despite a laudatory letter of introduction from a Spanish diplomat, his application was rejected, possibly due to Dávalos' lack of credibility in the sense of David Bloor or Steven Shapin.

Aniops Casey, 1922, Psiona Casey, 1922, Preglyptobaris Bondar, 1946 and Prospoliata Hustache, 1950 are here proposed as new junior synonyms of Chryasus Champion, 1908 because their ostensibly diagnostic character states are more or less continuous following examination of numerous species from throughout their geographic ranges and are not valid as separate lineages in this broader context. Amphibaris bruniceps Bondar, 1946, Aniops sculpturatus Casey, 1922, Baris multistriata Chevrolat, 1880, Preglyptobaris bicolor Bondar, 1946, Psiona carinulosa Casey, 1922 and Psiona densa Casey, 1922 are transferred to Chryasus (new combinations). Baridius ignavus Boheman, 1844 and Amphibaris dispar Bondar, 1946 are transferred from Sphenobaris Champion, 1909 to Glyptobaris Casey, 1892 (new combinations).
