摘要:The citizens in Danume Delta are living with the latent and permanent concern about a flood. In this study we were interested to reveal significant aspects of citizens' attitudes in relation with the probable natural risk, in particular the anticipations of flood occurrence, the behavior during the event, evaluations of consequen ces, support factors and subjective vuln erability (vulnerability out of danger). A non-probabilistic convenient sample of 143 participants was investigated in a field investigation based on an open- ended questionnair e containing both demographic variables and perceptions about the probable r isk. Content analysis revealed concrete aspects of subjects' p erceptions (correlations between attitudes, differ ential perceptions).
