Abstract
Disaster preparedness is critical for reducing potential impact.
This paper contributes to current knowledge of disaster preparedness using
representative national sample data from China, which faces high earthquake
risks in many areas of the country. The adoption of earthquake preparedness
activities by the general public, including five indicators of material preparedness and
five indicators of awareness preparedness, were surveyed and 3245 respondents from all
31 provinces of Mainland China participated in the survey. Linear
regression models and logit regression models were used to analyze the
effects of potential influencing factors. Overall, the preparedness levels
are not satisfied, with a material preparation score of 3.02 (1–5), and
awareness preparation score of 2.79 (1–5), nationally. Meanwhile, residents
from western China, which has higher earthquake risk, have higher degrees of preparedness.
The concern for disaster risk reduction (DRR) and the concern for building
safety and participation in public affairs are consistent positive predictors
of both material and awareness preparedness. The demographic and
socioeconomic variables' effects, such as gender, age, education, income,
urban/rural division, and building size, vary according to different
preparedness activities. Finally, the paper concludes with a discussion of
the theoretical contribution and potential implementation.
