- Abstract
In recent years, the frequent occurrence of food safety issues has not only harmed the health of consumers, but also severely influenced the development of food industry; moreover, people begin to distrust food safety and government's relevant management. At present, food biotechnology (such as food additives, pesticides and genetically modified food) is the focus of people's attention as well as researches in terms of food safety. Therefore, we researched on the symmetry and asymmetry mechanism of different trust dimensions in food safety management. Through variance analysis, we concluded that in food safety management, relational trust is symmetrical, while calculative trust is asymmetrical; specifically, in the field of food additives and pesticides, relational trust is symmetrical, awareness of government's behavior and familiarity are asymmetrical; in the field of genetically modified food, relational trust and government's behavior and quality are symmetrical, awareness of government's behavior is asymmetrical.
