本研究旨在了解基因改造食品對國中生的影響,從態度、消費行為及學習需求三向度來探討,並了解其個人背景變項、一般環境態度與基因改造食品三向度之關係。以臺南縣一所國民中學的學生為研究對象,並以自編問卷為研究工具,採分層叢集隨機抽樣方式,發出問卷540份,回收有效問卷528份,重要研究結果歸納如下: 一、國中生的一般環境態度積極正向,認為需尊重大自然,傾向不支持基因改造食品,消費意願也偏低,且願意多學習基因改造食品的相關知識。 二、影響國中生基因改造食品態度的重要變項為年級;影響其消費意願的重要變項為是否外食,而影響對其學習需求的重要變項則為父母親是否有宗教信仰。 三、國中生的一般環境態度與基因改造食品態度及消費意願為負相關,而其基因改造食品態度及消費意願對於基因改造食品的學習需求也為負相關。 四、國中生的一般環境態度對其基因改造食品三向度的預測力最高。 根據研究結果建議政府及相關教育單位,加強國中生對基因改造食品的了解,以增加其學習及食品消費時思考的廣度及深度。
The purpose of this study was to investigate the three dimensions of attitude , consumption behavior and learning demands toward GMFs of the junior high school students, and to identify the factors that may influence students’ three dimensions toward GMFs. Students from a Tainan County junior high were selected as the research target. This study used a questionnaire method and stratified sampling in selecting sample. There were 528 valid questionnaires out of 540. The main results of this study are as follows: 1.
