Abstract

Persons with disabilities (PwDs) face a disproportionately high risk due to their physical or mental limitations and socioeconomic barriers during emergencies. To better understand and empower PwDs for disaster preparedness, this study used an updated national representative survey (2021 Federal Emergency Management Agency National Household Survey) from the United States to examine the differences between PwDs and their counterparts concerning disaster preparedness with the guidance of the protection motivation theory. The results of the Tobit regression models indicated that being disabled was negatively correlated with the level of preparedness. Furthermore, disability status significantly and negatively modified the relationship between risk perception and disaster preparedness. Likewise, self-efficacy was less strongly correlated with preparedness activities if people self-reported themselves as having a disability. Moreover, for people with disabilities, their beliefs about the effectiveness of preventive behaviours (response efficacy) predicted decreased adoption of preparedness measures. Promoting disaster risk reduction education, strengthening self-efficacy and developing more inclusive and targeted intervention strategies for PwDs can be used to improve their preparedness degree and capacity for disaster prevention.

风险意识、效率和备灾:残疾人与非残疾人的比较
由于身体或精神上的限制以及社会经济方面的障碍,残疾人(PwDs)在紧急情况下面临着不成比例的高风险。为了更好地了解残疾人并增强他们的备灾能力,本研究利用美国最新的全国代表性调查(2021 年联邦紧急事务管理局全国家庭调查),在保护动机理论的指导下,研究了残疾人与同龄人在备灾方面的差异。Tobit 回归模型的结果表明,残疾与备灾水平呈负相关。此外,残疾状况对风险感知与备灾之间的关系有明显的负向调节作用。同样,如果人们自称有残疾,则自我效能与备灾活动的相关性较低。此外,对于残疾人来说,他们对预防行为有效性的信念(反应效能)预示着备灾措施采用率的下降。促进减少灾害风险教育、加强自我效能以及为残疾人制定更具包容性和针对性的干预策略,可用于提高他们的备灾程度和防灾能力。
