Variables in analysis

The following cases were excluded from the analysis:

  • Q9_celebration/feast/fasting day=“Yes” (600 obs.);

  • Q18_gender=“Prefer not to say” (12 obs.);

  • Q17 for all foods answered “I don’t Know/Prefer Not to say”.

Innovation

Q6 local food interest



Univariate analysis of the relationship between Q6.local_food_interest and explanatory variables

linear model with all explanatory variables

stepwise model selection (BIC criterion)

Q6.local_food_interest - experiments

Q13 nutri food interest



Univariate analysis of the relationship between Q6.local_food_interest and explanatory variables

linear model with all explanatory variables

stepwise model selection (BIC criterion)

Q13.nutri_food_interest - experiments

innovation (Q6 local food interest & Q13 nutri food interest)

The propensity to introduce the consumption of innovative products is calculated as the average of Q6.local_food_ _interest and Q13.nutri_food_interest

Reasons for including new food products (local or nutrient-rich) were grouped using a factor analysis, as well as obstacles.
