Science denialism can also be seen through a person's hypocritical behavior where they know their behavior is harmful to themselves or others and that the scientific evidence indicates this, yet they engage in such behavior.

Science deniers often give weak [[Rationalization (Psychology)|rationalizations]] for their irrational statements and/or behaviors. For example, a cancer researcher who is addicted to cigarettes may say such things as "I can quit anytime I want to."
