摘要:

目的:了解大学生对食品添加剂的认知状况和影响因素,为食品添加剂风险交流提供依据。方法:采用随机抽样方法,对北京大学学生进行自填式问卷调查。结果:北京大学学生对于食品添加剂有较高的风险认知和负性情绪。知识和企业风险控制等对于降低风险认知和负性情绪都有显著影响。但是,知识知晓和企业风险控制评价的情况均较差,71.4%的受访者将违法添加物三聚氰胺等视为食品添加剂,仅8.9%的受访者认为企业会按标准使用食品添加剂。结论:要促进食品添加剂的科学认知、降低负性情绪,应加强食品添加剂知识的科普宣教、并规范企业遵纪守法的行为。

Abstract:

Purpose: This study investigated undergraduates’ attitudes toward the safety risks of food additives and the
influencing factors, aiming to support the government’s strategies for risk communication. Method: Undergraduate students
from Peking University were randomly enrolled into the survey and filled the self-reported questionnaires. Results:
Participants perceived high risk of food additives and showed strong negative attitudes toward the safety risks of food
additives. Knowledge and risk control reduced the risk perception and negative affects effectively. However, the participants
generally lacked knowledge about food additives; 71.4% of them misreported the illegal additives as food additives. Besides,
they also showed strong distrust on the food manufactories. Only 8.9% of them believed that the corporations would use
the food additives legally. Conclusion: It is necessary to popularize the knowledge about food additives in proper ways and
increase the risk control for food processing companies.

Key words: food additives, risk perception, knowledge, risk control
