The revolution in biotechnology at the end of 20th century has improved agricultural productivity, reduced environmental impact, and enhanced food nutrition. However, genetically modified (GMF) consumption remains low, particularly European Union, including Spain. This study develops a GMF acceptance model based on Theory Planned Behavior, incorporating five key variables alongside gender age as control factors. Attitude-related include perceived benefit (PB) risk (PR). Perceived factors involve neophobia (PHOB) knowledge (KNOWL) about GMFs. Additionally, subjective norm (SN) is considered. Using sample 728 Spanish consumers, was validated, explaining 70% variance demonstrating strong predictive capability. results so PB, KNOWL, SN positively influence acceptance, whereas PR PHOB have negative effects. PB emerged most influential variables, which are also highlighted priorities importance-performance map analysis (IPMA). Based these findings, strategies been proposed to enhance benefits norms, potentially increasing acceptance. provides valuable insights into consumer behavior offers guidance for policymakers industry stakeholders promote adoption
