摘要

希腊消费者认为食品中农药残留的风险增加了。这项研究调查了希腊消费者对希腊植物性食品安全性的看法,并与其他欧盟国家的消费者进行了比较。一半的希腊消费者认为希腊食品和其他欧洲食品一样安全,而另一半则不同意。根据主成分分析和双变量逻辑回归,有几个因素,如植物性食品的感知安全性、教育程度、年龄、性别、可追溯性、农药的感知利益和风险、农药的实际使用和权威信息来源,都会影响这种态度。该领域的权威知识可以降低风险认知,提高希腊消费者对食品安全的态度。潜在阶级分析确定了两类消费者。第一类人获得的农药信息有限,导致对农药效益的认知较低,对可追溯性的不信任程度较高,对农药残留的担忧也较高。相比之下,第二类人积极地从可靠的来源搜索信息,认可希腊植物食品的安全性,承认农药的好处,并相信可追溯性。官方信息与降低风险认知有关。监管机构应考虑社会人口学和其他内在特征对个人风险感知的影响,并优先考虑风险沟通策略的透明度。

Pesticide Safety in Greek Plant Foods from the Consumer Perspective: The Importance of Reliable Information
Greek consumers perceive an increased risk of pesticide residues in food. This study examined Greek consumers’ perceptions of the safety of Greek plant-based food compared to those from other EU countries. One-half of Greek consumers believe Greek food is as safe as other European foods, while the other half disagree. According to a principal component analysis and a bivariate logistic regression, several factors, such as the perceived safety of plant foods, education, age, gender, traceability, perceived benefits and risks of pesticides, actual pesticide use, and authoritative information sources, influence this attitude. Authoritative knowledge in this field can reduce risk perception and improve Greek consumers’ attitudes towards food safety. The latent class analysis identified two categories of consumers. The first class receives limited information about pesticides, leading to lower perceived pesticide benefits, higher mistrust of traceability, and concerns about pesticide residues. In contrast, the second class actively searches for information from credible sources, endorses the Greek plant foods safety, acknowledges the pesticide benefits, and trusts traceability. Official information is associated with reduced risk perception. Regulators should consider the impact of sociodemographic and other intrinsic characteristics on individuals’ risk perceptions and prioritise transparency in risk communication strategies.
