An appropriate score / weightage can be given for each component utilizing the ABCD model. Additionally, the framework intends to apply factor analysis and elementary analysis to get additional understanding of the subject.


Design: The published papers pertaining to the ABCD analysis framework have been extensively evaluated for this study. By giving proper weight to key attributes and using quantitative analysis through focus group interaction, the study was able to identify the key influencing variables and essential constituent aspects for the mitigation of food waste behaviour of consumers in restaurants.
