摘要
Kilic I, Bozkurt Z.使用动物福利态度量表(AWAS)评估土耳其消费者态度。墨西哥兽医局。2020; 7(1)。doi: 10.22201 / fmvz.24486760e.2020.1.663。本研究的目的是使用定制的动物福利态度量表(AWAS),从认知、情感和行为方面考察土耳其消费者对动物福利的态度。消费者的整体态度也被决定了。采用德尔菲法建立题库,编制问卷,用于构建AWAS。该问卷随后用于数据收集。在土耳其7个地区的14个城市共调查了2295名消费者。采用描述性统计、探索性因子分析(EFA)、验证性因子分析(CFA)、信度分析、Ward’s分层聚类法和单因素方差分析对问卷进行验证,并对数据进行分析。EFA的结果允许在3个维度(认知、情感和行为)下收集的42个项目的分配,这解释了模型总方差的72%。这一因素结构随后被对425名消费者的不同样本进行的CFA证实。计算出AWAS的Cronbach’s Alpha系数为0.829。这些结果证实了所编制的AWAS量表是有效可靠的。调查问卷显示,消费者对动物福利的态度在行为维度上比在认知维度和情感维度上更为消极。根据对动物福利的总体态度,土耳其消费者最终被分为三组:冷漠、温和或敏感。三分之一的土耳其消费者属于敏感群体,因此强调了土耳其动物友好食品营销的潜在利基。
