Thesis (M.S.)--D'Youville College, 2018.
The USDA estimates that 30-40% of food in the United States is wasted each year, with consumers responsible for over two-thirds of this waste. Current research suggests that both attitudinal and behavioral factors are important determinants of food waste. The purpose of this descriptive and exploratory study was to examine food waste-related attitudes and behaviors, and the relationship between the two variables among emerging adults at a local college in western New York (WNY). The Reasoned Action Approach was utilized as the theoretical framework for this study. A convenience sample of 271 college students, aged 18--29, were recruited by e-mail. They completed an online researcher-constructed survey that assessed their food waste-related attitudes and behaviors. Descriptive statistics and Pearson's correlation were used to analyze the data. The majority of the sample had positive attitudes towards sustainability and negative attitudes towards food waste. These attitudes were significantly (p < 0.05) and positively correlated with food-related behaviors (r = 0.34), particularly with proper date label use (r = 0.13), proactive leftover use ( r = 0.36), and proactive planning behaviors (r = 0.37). The majority of respondents were proactive with regards to planning and use of leftovers, but often engaged in wasteful shopping practices. In addition, most respondents misunderstood and misused date labels, demonstrating a need for standardized date labels. Findings from this study imply that there is great potential for food waste reduction in emerging adults.
