Project Description
Summary:
View help for Summary
Following the 2011 Christchurch and Hitachi (Tōhoku) earthquakes,
the study team selected a random sample of 600 households in each city from
census (Christchurch) or voter registration (Hitachi) records. The procedure
yielded 257 usable questionnaires from Christchurch (response rate = 42.8%) and
332 usable questionnaires from Hitachi (response rate = 55.3%). A major contribution of this study is to assess the effects of
people’s immediate emotional reactions on their behavioral responses.
Although people’s emotional reactions are likely to have a significant effect on their
behavior, this class of variables has been almost completely ignored in
previous research on earthquake response and has been studied inadequately even
in the few cases when it has been addressed.
