This page contains a detailed description about data management and analysis of an international survey related to scientific article Forage Fish as Food: Consumer Perceptions on Baltic Herring by Mia Pihlajamäki, Arja Asikainen, Suvi Ignatius, Päivi Haapasaari, and Jouni T. Tuomisto.[1] The results of this survey where also used in another article Health effects of nutrients and environmental pollutants in Baltic herring and salmon: a quantitative benefit-risk assessment by the same group.[2]

Question

How Baltic herring and salmon are used as human food in Baltic sea countries? Which determinants affect on people’s eating habits of these fish species?

Answer

Rationale

Survey of eating habits of Baltic herring and salmon in Denmark, Estonia, Finland and Sweden has been done in September 2016 by Taloustutkimus oy. Content of the questionnaire can be accessed in Google drive. The actual data can be found from the link below (see Data).

Preprocessing

This code is used to preprocess the original questionnaire data from the above .csv file and to store the data as a usable variable to Opasnet base. The code stores a data.frame named survey.

  • Model run 11.7.2018 [2]
  • Model run 27.3.2019 with country codes DK EE FI SE [3]

Analyses

  • Sketches about modelling determinants of eating (spring 2018) [4]

Figures, tables and stat analyses for the first manuscript

  • Model run 8.5.2019 with thlVerse code (not run on Opasnet) [5] [6]
  • Model run 26.8.2018 with fig 6 as table [7]
  • Previous model runs are archived.

Descriptive statistics

Correlation matrix of all questions in the survey (answers converted to numbers).

Model must contain predictors such as country, gender, age etc. Maybe we should first study what determinants are important? Model must also contain determinants that would increase or decrease fish consumption. This should be conditional on the current consumption. How? Maybe we should look at principal coordinates analysis with all questions to see how they behave.

Also look at correlation table to see clusters.

Some obvious results:

  • If reports no fish eating, many subsequent answers are NA.
  • No vitamins correlates negatively with vitamin intake.
  • Unknown salmon correlates negatively with the types of salmon eaten.
  • Different age categories correlate with each other.

However, there are also meaningful negative correlations:

  • Country vs allergy
  • Country vs Norwegian salmon and Rainbow trout
  • Country vs not traditional.
  • Country vs recommendation awareness
  • Allergy vs economic wellbeing
  • Baltic salmon use (4 questions) vs Don't like taste and Not used to
  • All questions between Easy to cook ... Traditional dish

Meaningful positive correlations:

  • All questions between Baltic salmon ... Rainbow trout
  • How often Baltic salmon/herring/side salmon/side herring
  • How much Baltic salmon/herring/side salmon/side herring
  • Better availability ... Recommendation
  • All questions between Economic wellbeing...Personal aims
  • Omega3, Vitamin D, and Other vitamins

Dependencies

The survey data will be used as input in the benefit-risk assessment of Baltic herring and salmon intake, which is part of the WP5 work in Goherr-project.
