Food Safety and Inspection Service
Title: Qualitative Research on Food Safety Behaviors Among Parents
and Caregivers who prepare meals for minors or older adults. In Depth
Interview Research.
OMB Number: 0583-NEW.
Type of Request: Request for a new information collection.
Abstract: FSIS is announcing its intention to collect information
from interviews on consumer food safety knowledge, attitudes, and
behaviors. FSIS will also collect consumer responses to food safety
messages related to home cooking to gather feedback on message content
and format.
FSIS' Office of Public Affairs and Consumer Education makes sure
members of the American public are equipped with the tools they need to
reduce their risk of foodborne illness by teaching the public how to
safely handle, prepare, and store food. Consumer education campaigns
developed by OPACE's staff are created to promote safe food handling
procedures and reduce the likelihood of foodborne illness.
To extend its commitment to educating the public about food safety,
FSIS is seeking to focus on the parents and caregivers or those who are
providing care and preparing meals to at least one child or one older
adult, as a priority audience for this new food safety campaign.
Need and Use of the Information: Preliminary research is necessary
to learn more about how to best tailor campaign messages to suit the
needs of the audiences of focus. The goal of the proposed research
study is to learn more about African American/Black and Hispanic/Latino
parent and caregiver knowledge, attitudes, and current behaviors
regarding food safety. The information collected from this research
will be used to develop and tailor messages to suit audience needs.
Further, audience feedback about draft messaging strategies and
approaches is necessary to ensure that campaign messages will appeal to
audiences.
Information will be used to develop and disseminate effective
messaging to help reduce foodborne illness among parents and
caregivers. The lack of information in this area would impede the
Agency's ability to provide more useful information to consumers to
help reduce foodborne illness in the United States. The final goal will
be to gather feedback on proposed FSIS food safety messages and
understand their possible influence on future food safety behaviors
among consumers.
Description of Respondents: Individuals/Households (Parents and
Caregivers).
Number of Respondents: 3,050.
Frequency of Responses: Reporting: Annually.
Total Burden Hours: 547.
