尽管现有文献探讨了危害经验，显着性和人口统计特征如何塑造威胁评估和危害调整意图，但本研究通过探索诸如危险，政治意识形态和石油纠缠的定性特征等其他因素如何扩展了过去的研究，以构成威胁的评估，并塑造了对响应的评估和调整对响应措施的措施。这项研究以保护动机理论（PMT）为基础，以探索俄克拉荷马州27个县的数据（n = 866）的数据来塑造俄克拉荷马人的意图，以适应诱发的地震性，这些数据经历了因石油和天然气探索而导致的地震活动水平的不同水平。相关分析和结构方程建模表明，原始PMT中未包含的几个变量，例如与地震相关的恐惧或负面情绪的感觉，是采用危险调整的意图的重要预测指标。这项研究以检查其他因素对调整意图和风险看法的影响，可以帮助指导未来的地震风险管理在识别和采取适当的行动，以刺激私人参与者的预防行为。
While existing literature has explored how hazard experience, salience, and demographics characteristics shape threat appraisal and hazard adjustment intentions, this study expands on past studies by exploring how additional factors such as qualitative characteristics of the hazard, political ideology, and oil entanglements shape threat appraisals, coping appraisals, and adjustment intentions in response to a techna hazard. This study builds on protection motivation theory (PMT) to explore factors that shape Oklahomans' intentions to adjust to induced seismicity using data collected from households (n=866) across 27 counties in Oklahoma that have experienced varying levels of seismic activity resulting from oil and gas exploration. Correlational analyses and structural equation modeling show that several variables not included in the original PMT, such as feelings of dread or negative emotions associated with earthquakes, are important predictors of intentions to adopt hazard adjustments. This study concludes with examining the effect of additional factors on adjustment intentions and risk perceptions that can help guide future earthquake risk management in identifying and taking appropriate actions that will stimulate precautionary behavior of private actors.
