Article Title
Extension Education and Unbiased Research
Abstract
The question of what Extension educators should do when their judgment of best available research conflicts with grassroots beliefs is addressed. If Extension is to be an objective educational resource, we must be careful to understand that we extend knowledge and not truth. Our educational programs must recognize that the best research is limited in its applicability, that diverse audiences will appropriately respond differently to the same research, and that we are biased in what we believe is the best available research.
