苏州市三所高校大学生食品安全知识、态度、行为的调查

Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice on Food Safety among Students from Three Colleges in Suzhou

[目的]了解苏州市大学生食品安全知识、态度、行为(knowledge-attitude-practice,KAP)现况,为开展大学生食品安全健康教育提供依据,初步探索健康教育的有效方法和形式。[方法]设计食品安全KAP调查问卷,对苏州市1 300名在校大学生进行问卷调查。[结果]大学生食品安全知识的平均得分为(45.34±4.80)分,不同生源地、月消费金额间大学生食品安全知识得分差异有统计学意义;大学生对食品安全教育普遍持积极态度,医学类专业学生的食品安全态度平均得分高于非医学类专业学生,且差异有统计学意义。受调查的学生中有55.10%的人认为有必要接受食品安全教育,部分大学生存在一些不良食品消费习惯;网络、电视、报刊杂志等媒体是大学生获取食品安全知识的主要途径。[结论]大学生普遍较关注食品安全问题且达到一定的关注度,但由于食品安全知识知晓程度较低,导致食品安全保护意识仍处在较低水平。应加强对大学生的食品安全教育,使其获取更多的食品安全知识,提高食品安全意识,改变不良行为习惯。
