Abstract

130 subjects participated in a study of the relationship between selected predictors and responses to potential earthquake hazard. The results of backstep regression analyses indicated that amount of education was the best predictor from those selected of perceived probability of earthquake occurrence, that estimation of potential damage was related to number of damage reduction measures, perceived reliability of official support systems, and expectation of earthquake, and that trait-anxiety and expectation of earthquake accounted for a significant percentage of the variance in acknowledged anxiety in response to prediction of an earthquake.
