Neophobia, Neophilia, Variety seeking, Taste attitudeAbstract
Individuals might exhibit different attitudes towards food. Some people abstain from trying new foods while others seek variety and desire trying them. In this context, a research was conducted in order to determine the impact of food-related personality traits on taste attitude. The data was collected through a survey based on literature review. The survey was conducted on restaurant customers who live in Kayseri, are aged between 20 and 69, and dine out at least once a year. The survey was carried out between the dates of 01.05-31.07, 2018, based on quota sampling. A total of 1286 surveys were analysed using factor and regression analyses, along with one sample T- test and analysis of variance. While it is found out that variance seeking does not have a meaningful impact on taste attitude, neophobia is found out to have a negative impact on taste attitude, and neophilia is discovered to have a positive impact on taste attitude.
