摘要 目的是开发一种适用于干旱和强降雨情况的城市用水量 (UWC) 感知风险测量方法。首先，我们分析了 UWC 相关感知风险的现有量表和维度。其次，我们使用两项研究来测试我们提出的量表。研究 1 于 2012 年在西班牙（n = 701）进行，当时正值大雨期间。研究 2 于 2014 年在西班牙半干旱地区 (n = 477) 进行，当时正值长期干旱。所提出的量表具有三个维度（影响、时间相关和控制）和高可靠性（0.86-0.89）、有效性（收敛、判别、构造），并且在雨季和干旱期之间保持不变。 UWC感知风险量表符合皮尔逊“VI型分布”，可以为学者和技术人员在研究和城市水管理项目中衡量城市水感知风险提供帮助。
Abstract The objective is to develop a measure of perceived risk underlying urban water consumption (UWC) that is applicable in situations of drought and strong rainfall. First, we analyse existing scales and the dimensions involved in perceived risk related to UWC. Second, we test our proposed scale using two studies. Study 1 was carried out in Spain in 2012 (n = 701) during a period of heavy rains. Study 2 was performed in 2014 in the semi-arid area of Spain (n = 477) during a long drought period. The proposed scale has three dimensions (impact, time-related and control) and high reliabilities (0.86–0.89), validities (convergent, discriminant, construct) and is invariant between both rainy and dry periods. UWC Perceived Risk Scale fits into a Pearson 'Type VI distribution’, which can serve scholars and technicians in measuring urban water perceived risk in their researches and urban water management projects.
