摘要: The increase in public concern regarding food hazards and decline trust risk regulators suggests that there is a need to identify the actual concerns held by specific order develop effective communication. In this paper we report findings of semi-structured interviews, using laddering technique, aimed with regard five (BSE, genetic modification food, high fat diets, pesticide residues Salmonella poisoning). It was found most identified characteristics were unique hazards, though some shared. supported validation study more representative sample public. discussion argues messages addressing these will be relevant than general messages, which may lead
