Notes:
9 pages., Online via website., Results of a national survey among U.S. adults suggest that"divides in public opinion over food are encapsulated by how people assess the health effects of two kinds of food: organic and genetically modified (GM) foods. Americans' beliefs about food connect with their personal concerns about the role of food choices in their long term health and well-being."
Online via UI Library electronic subscription., Authors used data from Eurobarometer surveys to examine factors that condition citizens' attitudes toward genetically modified foods in 15 European Union member states. Strongest findings confirmed the importance of public understanding of science as a basis for support for this emerging technology.
