Résumé

Citizen science projects are valued for their impact on participants' knowledge, attitude and behavior towards science. In this paper, we explore how participation in biodiversity citizen science projects is correlated to different dimensions of trust in science. We conduct a quantitative study through an online survey of 1,199 individuals, 586 of them being part of a biodiversity citizen science program in France. Our results suggest that participation-related trust is more exhaustive-it covers more dimensions of the scientific endeavor-than education-related trust. This exploratory study calls for more empirical research on the links between citizen science and the different dimensions of public trust in science.
