Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: This study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the holiday food safety campaign, \"The Story of Your Dinner,\" launched in 2016 by the Partnership for Food Safety Education. The campaign was designed to change knowledge, risk perception, and perceived behavioral control ideas among U.S. consumers. Results from the study, conducted from 2016 through 2018, were analyzed overall and among specific demographic groups. For respondents from all 3 years, overall knowledge significantly increased from presurvey to postsurvey. Survey findings indicated that after viewing the educational intervention, adult respondents were significantly more confident in their ability to use a food thermometer while cooking small cuts of meat and poultry and developed a significantly higher perception of the risk of suffering from foodborne illness. The educational intervention was more effective for changing risk perception and perceived behavioral control among some demographic groups. Respondent risk perception and perceived behavioral control significantly increased in more categories for adolescents than for adults. Consumers tended to overestimate their safe food handling practices. Prior to the educational intervention, adult respondents rated themselves highly (5.49 ± 1.64 of 7.00) on their confidence in cooking meat and poultry that is safe to eat. However, these respondents were less comfortable complying with the safe food handling practice of using a thermometer on small (4.47 ± 1.98) and large (4.61 ± 2.02) cuts of meat and poultry. More educational interventions are needed to improve compliance with safe food handling in home kitchens. Future studies will be conducted to identify and address barriers to food safety behavioral change among various population groups.

摘要:
UNASSIGNED:进行这项研究是为了评估假日食品安全运动的有效性,“你的晚餐的故事,“由食品安全教育伙伴关系于2016年启动。这场运动旨在改变知识,风险感知,以及美国消费者感知的行为控制理念。研究结果,从2016年到2018年进行,对总体和具体人口群体进行了分析。对于所有3年的受访者,从调查前到调查后,总体知识显着增加。调查结果表明,在查看教育干预措施后,成年受访者对烹饪少量肉类和家禽时使用食物温度计的能力更有信心,并且对患食源性疾病的风险有更高的认识。在某些人口统计学群体中,教育干预对于改变风险感知和感知行为控制更有效。与成年人相比,青少年的受访者风险感知和感知行为控制在更多类别中显着增加。消费者倾向于高估他们的安全食品处理方法。在教育干预之前,成人受访者对烹饪安全食用的肉类和家禽的信心给予高度评价(7.00中的5.49±1.64)。然而,这些受访者不太愿意遵守在小(4.47±1.98)和大(4.61±2.02)切肉和家禽上使用温度计的安全食品处理实践。需要更多的教育干预措施来提高家庭厨房对安全食品处理的依从性。未来的研究将进行,以确定和解决各种人群中食品安全行为变化的障碍。
