“…According to Jeinie et al (2015), teaching street food vendors the importance of food hygiene and food safety is a tool to successfully implement a food safety culture among street food vendors and increase the hygienic conditions. According to Agüeria et al (2018), to receive positive results street food handlers should be exposed to a strategised training programme, containing different features contextualised to promote food safety.…”

“…A different result in the previous studies of food handlers in Putrajaya is nationality, and education level is two main factors that are significantly influencing food handlers' practices 12 . Few studies showed that poor hygiene practices among food handlers are explained by food handlers' lack of knowledge [13][14][15] . 4 shows an association between knowledge, attitudes and practices among food handlers engaged in food courts.…”

The aim of this paperis to evaluate the aspects of knowledge, attitude, and practices about food hygiene and safety issues among food handlers who are working in food courts. A cross-sectional study was conducted at four randomly food courts in Petaling Jaya, Malaysia during June and July 2017. It involves 108 respondents that match the inclusion criteria among food handlers. The guided self-administered questionnaire; were divided into three sections which are knowledge, practices, and attitudes. After the complete questionnaireswere collected, data were entered and analysed using the Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) software version 23.0. Positive correlations were seen between mean knowledge score and mean attitudes score (p-value=0.0240, r=0.217), between attitude score and practices score (p < 0.001, r=0.559) and between knowledge score and practices score (p value=0.049, r=0.190). The strongest correlation being between mean attitudes score and mean practices score. Respondents with low knowledge score also had the higher practices score. This paper serves as an eye-opener for policy makersas they can review and improve the knowledge, attitude and practices in food safety among food handlers in food courts and they can also help raise food safety awareness campaign and organize more targeted training in related fields of concern.

“…The theory of planned behaviour of Ajzen and Fishbein (1980) can be applied to children’s food safety behaviour. Knowledge, attitude and practice towards food safety are included in the integrated conceptual model and are being studied for education to develop health and food hygiene and safety competence (Jeinie et al , 2015; Agüeria et al , 2018). Kim (2018) reported the concern on the adulterated food of adolescents’ parents impacted on the attitude, necessity, hygiene and nutrition, knowledge, citizen action and environment grasp capability of AFM of parents ( p <0.01).…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to determine the function of adulterated food management (AFM) in the behavioural intentions of adolescents on food safety concerns. Design/methodology/approach The methodology is exploratory in nature and uses analysis of variance and regression in determining the predictive power of the independent variables (AFM’s mediator variables) on the dependent variables (food safety concern and AFM behaviour intention). For this, a survey was conducted on middle and high school students in South Korea using a five-point Likert scale. Findings Perceived beliefs on, and competency and behavioural intention in, AFM significantly differed depending on food safety concern level (p<0.01). When perceived beliefs and competencies of AFM were regressed against behavioural intention, the model was highly significant and showed huge variance (R2=0.65). The factors influencing AFM in behavioural intention differed among all three groups: high concern group (efficacy, attitude and situation management), medium concern group (benefits, efficacy, attitude, situation management and hygiene practices) and low concern group (benefits, barriers and situation management). Therefore, AFM education should be observed with emphasis on varying points depending on the level of food safety concern. Research limitations/implications As this study only focused on exploring probable predictors for the criterion (perceived food safety concern), the contributions of each mediator factor to the full model are not covered in this study. Future investigations can include the study of individual variables and residuals to remove biases that may be present in the model. Originality/value The study will contribute to the safety of society and the health of adolescents by solving the issue of food safety and the problem of adulterated food in the aspect of the beliefs and competence of adolescents according to their concern level.
