摘要

背景:对灾害的误解阻碍了人们对备灾计划的足够重视。洪水是伊朗的主要自然灾害之一。 研究目的本研究旨在确定 2021 年伊朗洪水易发地区居民的洪水风险意识。 研究方法:这项横断面研究的对象是伊朗东北部赫萨-戈勒斯坦河沿岸三个村庄的 201 名居民。研究人员制作了一份调查问卷,用于评估他们的洪水风险认知和对洪水原因的看法。洪水风险感知采用 10 个问题和 5 点李克特量表进行评估。风险感知按三个等级计算:低(10 至 23 分)、中(24 至 37 分)和高(38 至 50 分)。抽样采用了多阶段抽样技术。 结果大多数参与者(81%)的风险意识为中等。平均风险感知分数为 30±5,表明风险感知处于中等水平。参与者认为,造成洪灾的三个主要原因分别是环境退化和水土流失、洪灾易发地区的无规划开发和建设以及季节性强降雨。性别和年龄与对洪水成因的某些看法之间存在明显关系。 结论参与者的风险意识处于中等水平。对洪水风险的低度或中度认知可能会导致对洪水的关注不够、不作为或在降低洪水风险和提高洪水防备能力方面做得不够。采取措施,如采用适当和有效的方法教育人们了解洪水的原因和后果,有助于更好地管理灾害。

Flood Risk Perception among the Inhabitants of a Flood-prone Area in Iran
Background: Misunderstanding of disaster hinders people from devoting enough attention to disaster preparedness programs. Flood is one of the main natural hazards in Iran. Objectives: The present study aimed to determine flood risk perception among residents of a flood-prone area in Iran in 2021. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 201 inhabitants of three villages along the Hesar-Golestan River in northeast Iran. A researcher-made questionnaire was used to assess their flood risk perception and opinions about the causes of the flood. Flood risk perception was assessed using ten questions with a 5-point Likert scale. Risk perception was calculated at three levels: low (scores 10 to 23), medium (scores 24 to 37), and high (scores 38 to 50). Multi-stage sampling technique was used for sampling. Results: The majority of participants (81%) had a moderate risk perception. The mean risk perception score was 30±5, which indicates a moderate risk perception. According to the participants, the three main causes of floods were environmental degradation and soil erosion, unplanned development and construction in flood-prone areas, and heavy seasonal rainfall, respectively. There was a significant relationship between gender and age with some opinions about the causes of floods. Conclusion: The risk perception of participants was at a moderate level. Low or moderate flood risk perception can lead to insufficient attention, inaction, or insufficient efforts to reduce the risk and increase preparedness for floods. Taking measures such as educating people about the causes and consequences of floods using appropriate and effective methods can help to manage disasters better.
