Abstract
Attitudes towards organic food significantly influence making of purchase decisions.
Therefore, knowledge of the ways in which these attitudes are formed is very
important. In this study, we examined how subjective and objective knowledge,
gender, place of growing up and kind of studentsʼ study of six faculties of University
of Zagreb influence attitudes towards organic food. The results of the research
indicated that there was a significant relation only between objective knowledge and
studentsʼ attitude about price of organic food.
