The purpose of this study is to reveal the effect of motivation to prevent food waste on food waste behavior at home and in hotels and to determine the relationship between food waste behavior between home and hotel settings. In this direction, data were collected from 241 participants aged 18 and over who stayed at least one night in all-inclusive hotels. Quantitative research method was used to test the research model. The research data were analyzed using SPSS and SmartPLS analysis programs. The findings clearly revealed that individuals' food waste behavior varies depending on different motivational factors. In addition, it was found that there was a moderate positive, and significant relationship between individuals' food waste prevention behaviors at home and at hotel, and it was observed that there was a higher level of food waste prevention behavior at home compared to the hotel setting.
