Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Electional astrology" in English language version.
The National Science Board, under the auspices of the National Science Foundation (NSF), sponsored thirteen surveys between 1979 and 2008 that demonstrated an increase in the percentage of Americans who believe that astrology is at least 'not at all' scientific - from 50 to 63 percent. [...] Astrology represents one of the few pseudo-scientific belief systems that in recent years has manifested a decline among the general public. NSF concludes that, given its lack of an evidentiary basis and its invocation of powers unknown by scientists and outside the realm of the natural laws, astrology is a pseudoscience.
