Exploring the microplastics health impacts risk perception in Iranian people: Challenges and improvement strategies
Researchers surveyed Iranians to assess their awareness and risk perception of microplastic health hazards, finding significant gaps in public understanding despite growing environmental contamination. The study proposes strategies spanning individual behavior, community education, and national policy to improve microplastic risk management.
Pengetahuan dan Kesadaran Masyarakat di Beberapa Lokasi Terpilih Kota Semarang tentang Literasi Sampah Laut dan Mikroplastik
A study of nearly 500 people in Indonesia found that those who actively searched for information online were more likely to understand the health risks of microplastics—tiny plastic particles that can end up in our food and water. People who got their information from the internet had better knowledge about plastic pollution and microplastic dangers compared to those who relied on other sources. This research suggests that making accurate information about microplastics easier to find online could help people make better choices to protect their health.
Keberadaan Plastik di Lingkungan, Bahaya terhadap Kesehatan Manusia, dan Upaya Mitigasi: Studi Literatur
This Indonesian-language literature review examined microplastic presence in the environment, summarizing health risks to humans from microplastic exposure through food and water, the environmental fate of plastic particles, and mitigation strategies including the 3Rs and material substitution to reduce plastic waste pollution.
ОЦЕНКА ИНФОРМИРОВАННОСТИ СТУДЕНТОВ О ВРЕДЕ МИКРОПЛАСТИКА НА ОРГАНИЗМ ЧЕЛОВЕКА
A survey of medical university students in Kazakhstan found that despite daily exposure to microplastics through food delivery packaging and other sources, most students had limited awareness of the health risks. The study highlights a significant knowledge gap that could hinder personal and public health responses to microplastic exposure.

A survey of public knowledge and perceptions about microplastic pollution in Lagos Lagoon, Nigeria found widespread awareness of plastic pollution but limited understanding of microplastics specifically, highlighting the need for targeted public health education.
Community awareness and perceptions on microplastics: a case study from Sri Lanka
A community survey in Sri Lanka assessed public awareness of microplastic pollution using convenience sampling across rural and urban areas, finding generally low awareness of microplastics as an environmental and health concern. The results highlight the need for public education campaigns about microplastic risks and regulatory measures.
Bridging the knowledge gap-microplastics in focus: assessing microplastic pollution awareness among medical students
Researchers surveyed 474 medical students at Pamukkale University to assess their awareness of microplastic pollution. The study found moderate to high awareness overall, with female students and those who had prior knowledge of microplastics scoring higher. Social media was the most common information source, and the study suggests targeted educational programs are needed to close gaps in understanding microplastic health impacts among future healthcare professionals.
Development and Validation of a Questionnaire Assessing Plastic Use Patterns, Knowledge, and Attitudes Toward Microplastics in Relation to Cognitive Function in Indonesia
Researchers developed and validated a questionnaire to assess plastic use patterns, microplastic knowledge, and attitudes among Indonesian adults, with a focus on potential associations with cognitive function.

Internet User Awareness Assessment on the Impact of Microplastics on Health
A survey of 281 internet users aged 15–50 across diverse demographics assessed public awareness of microplastic health risks. Results revealed significant gaps in understanding — most respondents had heard of microplastics but underestimated their prevalence in food and water and were unaware of specific health effects. The study highlights that public health messaging about microplastics lags well behind the scientific evidence, which matters because consumer behaviour and policy support both depend on informed public understanding.
Public knowledge of microplastics for pro-environmental behavior
Researchers analyzed public knowledge of microplastics and its relationship to pro-environmental behavior, finding that because microplastics are invisible to the naked eye, public perception depends entirely on external information sources rather than direct experience, with implications for environmental communication strategies.
