On the menu: Research helps future restaurant managers learn to meet needs of customers with 1xbet sports betting allergies
MANHATTAN -- A Kansas State University research team is serving up improved 1xbet sports betting allergy education for future restaurant managers and staff.
Junehee 1xbet sports betting , associate professor of hospitality management and dietetics, and Kevin Sauer, assistant professor of hospitality management and dietetics, are co-principal investigators on a project recently funded by a United States Department of Agriculture Higher Education Challenge Grant for more than 0,000.
"We are developing 1xbet sports betting allergy education materials that educators in hospitality management and dietetics can use to supplement the education of future 1xbet sports betting service managers," Kwon said.
A recent national study showed that more than 40 percent of people who have a seafood allergy -- one of the most common 1xbet sports betting in the United States -- have experienced an allergic reaction from eating in a restaurant.
This high percentage of allergic reactions may be from hidden allergens in sauces or from mixed dishes coming in contact with a safe 1xbet sports betting item, Kwon said. Knowing that such cross-contact has occurred may be difficult to determine and declare to the customer. Additionally, restaurant employees may not often understand the true risks of 1xbet sports betting allergies for their customers.
"Consumers with allergies are frustrated," Kwon said. "They are actually putting their lives in danger by buying and consuming 1xbet sports betting prepared by someone else. There is a need for consumer education to make sure the customer clearly communicates what his or her specific needs are to the restaurant staff. But even with that communication, people are still frustrated by the apparent inability of 1xbet sports betting service operations to assure allergen-free 1xbet sports betting ."
The researchers will use the grant to improve 1xbet sports betting allergy training for future restaurant and 1xbet sports betting service managers. They will develop educational materials to assist students in hospitality management and dietetics to be more proactive in working with customers who have 1xbet sports betting allergies.
"However, we realize that just having knowledge about 1xbet sports betting allergies is not enough," Kwon said. "Learning more about how 1xbet sports betting allergies can really impact someone's life can motivate these future managers to take 1xbet sports betting allergy precautions more seriously."
To motivate students, the researchers plan to use storytelling methods that feature video testimonials from individuals who have 1xbet sports betting allergies. These videos are meant to appeal to the students' emotions and show how 1xbet sports betting allergies have affected someone's life.
"For preliminary data collection, we created a short storytelling video and measured students' attitudes toward 1xbet sports betting allergies before and after watching it," Kwon said. "We saw an increase in how the students perceived the severity of the risks associated with 1xbet sports betting allergies and their motivation to learn more increased."
With the newly funded grant, the researchers will collect more testimonials, record them and incorporate them into new 1xbet sports betting allergy education curricula. In the future, they hope to expand their scope to work directly with employees and managers currently working in the 1xbet sports betting service industry.
1xbet sports betting and Sauer will also recruit undergraduate researchers for the project, particularly undergraduates involved in the Kansas Bridges to the Future program, the Developing Scholars Program and the Summer Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program.
USDA Higher 1xbet sports betting Challenge Grants support projects that address an educational need through a creative or nontraditional approach. Projects have the potential for regional or national influence and can serve as a model for other institutions.
