国际移徙者是灾害背景下的社会弱势群体。然而，针对这一群体的灾害研究是有限的。这个问题是本研究的主要焦点。AimTo探讨的反应，行为和经验，有关的自然灾害之间的移民生活在瓦尔帕莱索，Chile.MethodsFollowing建构主义范式，我们进行了个案研究。我们采访了20名移民。访谈采用主题分析法进行分析。这项研究是同行评议的Universidad del Desarrollo Ethics Committee.ResultsParticipants描述了激烈的情绪反应时，面对灾难，降低了他们的应对能力。他们对自然灾害和如何作出反应的知识有限，这在一定程度上解释了他们的反应和他们面临的困难。参与者将他们的反应与当地智利人表现出的行为进行了比较，这些人表现出很少的恐惧，似乎已经习惯了这些事件。最后，尽管有着相同的母语-西班牙语，但准备活动和警告似乎没有达到他们的目的。结论迫切需要通过移民现有的社交网络，执行文化上敏感的准备战略，以满足他们的需要和关切，使他们能够科普自然灾害。情感反应似乎在它们应对自然灾害的过程中发挥着重要作用，也应得到承认和验证。
International migrants are a socially vulnerable group within the context of disasters. However, disasters research focusing on this group is limited. This problem is the primary focus of the present study.AimTo explore responses, behaviors and experiences concerning natural hazards among migrants living in Valparaíso, Chile.MethodsFollowing a constructivist paradigm, we conducted a case study. We interviewed twenty migrants. The interviews were analyzed using thematic analysis. The study was peer-reviewed by Universidad del Desarrollo Ethics Committee.ResultsParticipants described intense emotional reactions when facing disasters that reduced their coping ability. Their limited knowledge about natural hazards and how to react, explains in part their responses and the difficulties they face. Participants compared their reactions with the behaviors exhibited by the local Chilean population who displayed very little fear and seemed to be used to these events. Finally, despite sharing the same native language, Spanish, preparation activities and warnings appear not to be reaching them.ConclusionsThere is an urgent need to implement culturally sensitive preparation strategies, through migrants' existing social networks, to address their needs and concerns and to enable them to cope with natural hazards. Emotional reactions appear to play an essential role in their response to natural disasters and should also be recognized and validated.
