社区理论家长期以来一直在努力解决社区是否会集体应对威胁的问题。社区、风险、灾害和自然资源管理理论都有助于理解社区行动。在这里，社区活动的概念模型进行实证检验，使用六个基奈半岛，阿拉斯加，社区的调查数据。数据分析表明，社会经济和生物物理的脆弱性，接近危险，经验，风险认知和当地的干扰能力显着影响社区活动的居民在应对森林干扰与云杉树皮甲虫爆发。对理论、森林管理和政策以及以自然资源为基础的社区的影响是先进的
Community theorists have long grappled with the question of whether or not communities collectively respond to threats. Community, risk, disaster, and natural resource management theories all inform an understanding of community action. Here, a conceptual model of community activeness is empirically tested using survey data from six Kenai Peninsula, Alaska, communities. Data analysis revealed that socioeconomic and biophysical vulnerability, proximity to hazard, experience, risk perception, and local interactional capacity significantly influenced community activeness on the part of residents in response to forest disturbance associated with an outbreak of spruce bark beetles. Implications for theory, forest management and policy, and natural resource-based communities are advanced
