The present study investigates the structure of attitudes towards genetically modified (GM) food. A total of 431 respondents completed a questionnaire measuring their overall attitude, cognition and affect towards GM food. A model with distinct positive and negative, affective and cognitive components and a separate factor for perceived risk and worry best accounted for the data. Negative--but not positive--components directly affected behavioural intentions. Implications of these findings for our understanding of attitudes towards GM food and their impact on behaviour are discussed.
本研究调查了对转基因食品的态度结构。共有431名受访者完成了一份问卷,该问卷测量了他们对转基因食品的总体态度、认知和情感。一个具有明显的积极和消极、情感和认知成分以及一个单独的感知风险和担忧因素的模型最能解释这些数据。消极成分——而非积极成分——直接影响行为意图。本文讨论了这些发现对我们理解转基因食品态度及其对行为影响的意义。
