Zusammenfassung |
The majority of people at risk from earthquakes do little or nothing to
reduce their vulnerability. Over the past 40 years social scientists have
tried to predict and explain levels of seismic hazard adjustment using models
from behavioural sciences such as psychology. The present paper is the first
to synthesise the major findings from the international literature on
psychological correlates and causes of seismic adjustment at the level of the
individual and the household. It starts by reviewing research on seismic risk
perception. Next, it looks at norms and normative beliefs, focusing
particularly on issues of earthquake protection responsibility and trust
between risk stakeholders. It then considers research on attitudes towards
seismic adjustment attributes, specifically beliefs about efficacy, control
and fate. It concludes that an updated model of seismic adjustment must give
the issues of norms, trust, power and identity a more prominent role. These
have been only sparsely represented in the social psychological literature to
date. |
