Abstract: This study examines the relationship between consumer's product attribute perceptions, especially food safety perceptions, and long-term consumption of oysters. Statistical analysis of consumer survey data shows that attribute perceptions are significantly associated with both market participation and level of consumption decisions. Yet, safety perception had a negligible behavioral impact.
