  • 摘要:In industrialized countries, about 30% of the population may suffer from foodborne illnesses each year. Ma-laysia has proven to be a country that has very serious focus on food, but the people do not care much about their food safety. Food safety and hygiene is usually explained as the multiple conditions and ways to pre-serve food quality, so that foodborne diseases and contamination is prevented. University students face with high risk because of their unsafe behaviors in consuming food. There have been many studies accomplished on comprehension, behavior and implementation towards food safety among food handlers. The current research desires to determine the current knowledge, attitude and practice status among students in Management Science University (MSU) on food safety. The study framework focuses on testing the relationship between knowledge, attitude and practices and whether or not attitude will be a mediating factor towards practices on food safety among university students in MSU. Using a quantitative and descriptive method, a structured questionnaire was distributed among 430 respondents. The result of the study was analyzed using regression test and indirect method. The result shows that the students had a good knowledge, attitude and practice status towards food safety and attitude was a partial mediating factor in the relationship between knowledge and practice.
