To achieve this aim, 412 regular beef consumers from Brazil, 407 from Spain, and 424 from Turkey answered a self-administered questionnaire. The study surveyed the effects of economic factors, switching from beef to other sources of protein, aspects of credence, health-related concerns, the influence of lifestyle on beef consumption patterns, and purchasing decision factors. The most important factors that changed consumer behavior and resulted in a decrease in consumption, mostly among Brazilian and Turkish consumers, were the economics and accessibility of the products. Beef was replaced by other alternative sources of protein that were likewise derived from animals. The consumers whose purchasing intentions were most significantly influenced by credence factors (e.g., indiscriminate use of agricultural products, substandard animal welfare requirements, among others) were Brazilian and Turkish and, to a lesser degree, Spanish consumers. Lifestyle factors (e.g., consumption of out-of-home meals, available time to cook, among others) were demonstrated to alter consumption patterns and therefore must be carefully considered by the industry, taking into account cultural differences and consumer needs. The population under investigation considered that eating beef had no impact on their health. info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 4.7 2023 FOOD SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY 38 / 173 = 0.22 2023 Q1 T1 0.87 2023 Food Science 2023 Q1 Health (social science) 2023 Q1 Plant Science 2023 Q1 Health Professions (miscellaneous) 2023 Q1 Microbiology 2023 Q2 7.4 2023 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Çakmakçi, Cihan Campo, María del Mar Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-8180-8663 Çakmakçi, Yusuf Makishi, Fausto Silva, Vivian Lara dos Santos Trindade, Marco Antonio 2008 700 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
