Abstract

The Food safety knowledge of 608 respondents in Accra was assessed under five food safety themes using a Likert-type scale questionnaire, and Mean Aggregate Score (MAS) for each theme computed. Further, the Mean of the MAS was calculated and used as an index of interpreting overall food safety knowledge of food handlers who participated in the study. The themes considered in this study were “Concern” for food Safety, “Cross-contamination”, “General and personal hygiene”, “Knowledge of pathogenic microbes” and “Handling left-over food”. The relationship between respondents’ knowledge of food safety and demographic characteristics was also explored. Some of the demographic factors that were found to influence food safety knowledge significantly were education and age but not gender.MAS ranged between 3.0 – 4.0 (Indifference – Agree) for “Cross-contamination” and “Handling-leftover”, while the overall score for food safety knowledge was 3.6, interpreted largely as Good on the scale adopted for the study. Generally, however, respondents were well-informed in the areas of food safety concerns, general and personal hygiene and handling leftover food but not, as far as cross-contamination and pathogenic bacteria are concerned.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
