灾难管理团队可以从2015年韩国中东呼吸综合征（MERS）疫情中学到很多东西。病毒爆发引发了公众的恐惧，导致首尔大都市区（SMA）的交通使用量大规模减少。其影响因社会经济群体和地理区域而异。一个典型的分析方法是将个人对灾难的反应与社会经济特征联系起来。然而，一个更结构化的方法，考虑到行为特征所造成的社会地位的个人，将确定这种协会的基本原因。这项研究假设，个人在日常生活中的固定程度可能会阐明这些关联。当恐惧普遍存在时，人们可以灵活地改变生活方式，从而在日常活动和旅行中做出更多改变。该研究考察了公众对流行性疾病的恐惧对旅行行为的影响，以及生活固定对个人对恐惧的反应的影响。为此，研究了MERS期间交通使用和旅行行为变化的智能卡数据。研究发现，恐惧是强大的，并根据生活固定水平和地区特征不同影响旅行行为。
Disaster management teams could learn much from the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) outbreak in South Korea in 2015. The virus outbreak provoked public fear, which resulted in a mass reduction in transit use in the Seoul Metropolitan Area (SMA). Its effect differed among socioeconomic groups and geographical areas. A typical way to analyze this is to associate individual reactions to the disaster with socioeconomic characteristics. However, a more structured approach, which considers behavioral characteristics resulting from the societal position of an individual, would identify the basic reason for such associations. The study hypothesized that the degree of fixity that individuals have in their daily life may elucidate these associations. When fear is prevalent, people having the flexibility to change their lifestyle will make more changes in daily activities and travels. The study examined the influence of public fear of a pandemic disease on travel behavior and the effect of life fixity on individual response to the fear. To this end, smart card data of transit use and changes in travel behavior during the MERS period were examined. The study found that fear was powerful and influenced travel behavior differently depending on life fixity levels and regional characteristics.
