## Forschungsfrage / Summary

The fermentation of food products is a transformation and preservation process in which different metabolites are generated, contributing to consumer health. In this sense, this systematic review aims to analyze the factors that guide the perception and preference for fermented foods. In addition, different perspectives are proposed based on the findings. The systematic search was carried out in four databases: Emerald Insight, Science Direct, Wiley Online Library, and Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute. The keywords used were (Title/Abstract): fermented products, overall [liking](/konzepte/liking/), purchase intention, expectations, emotions, interculturality, perception, and consumers. Ninety-two articles (n = 92) were selected and classified. The factors identified were (1) biological and physiological, (2) extrinsic product characteristics, (3) intrinsic product characteristics, (4) psychological, (5) situational, and (6) sociocultural. Intrinsic product characteristics were the most relevant, while the situational factors were the least studied. Our main contribution was a multidisciplinary approach to addressing the different factors in an integrated way, allowing a broader perspective of both products and consumers.
