这项定量研究的目的是确定贝尔格莱德地区中学生对地震作为自然灾害和安全威胁的看法和实际知识，并确定影响他们的知识和看法的因素。作者采用了对学生进行调查的方法来识别和描述影响学生对地震的知识和看法的因素。为了进行这项研究，从贝尔格莱德中学生总数（65,561 名学生）中抽取了 3,063 名学生，相当于总人口的 4.67%。结果表明，有关自然灾害及其威胁后果的信息来源影响中学生的认知。鉴于塞尔维亚明显缺乏有关自然灾害的教育，这项研究的结果可以在制定教育计划策略时使用。这项研究是制定和实现未来自然灾害管理战略的第一步，通过向公众（学校人员）、科学和行政团体通报并让其参与其中。
The aim of this quantitative research is to determine the perception and actual knowledge of secondary school students in the Belgrade region with respect to earthquakes as a natural disaster and security threat, and to identify the factors that influence their knowledge and perceptions. The authors used a method of surveying students to identify and describe the factors that influence student knowledge and perceptions about earthquakes. For the purpose of this research, a sample of 3,063 students was drawn from the total population of secondary school students in Belgrade (65,561 students), which equates to 4.67% of the population. The results show that the sources of information on natural disasters and their threatening consequences influence the perceptions of secondary school students. In view of the evident lack of education about natural disasters in Serbia, the results of this study can be used when creating a strategy for educational programs. This research is the first step in developing and realizing a future strategy for natural disaster management by informing and including public (school population), scientific, and administrative communities in the process.
