本研究探讨了感知风险的维度如何有助于避蚊行为在洪水易发区。避蚊行为分为主动性（即使用驱避源）和退缩/反应性（即减少外部活动）行为。在控制蚊子叮咬水平后，高于正常感知风险的分数增加与退缩/反应性回避行为相关;而正常感知风险的分数增加与主动回避行为相关。改善避蚊行为的努力应区分感知风险的类型和避蚊行为的类型。感知风险（即蚊媒疾病的正常风险）和避免行为（即计划避免行为）之间的更大一致性将提高疾病预防教育计划的有效性。
The present study examined how dimensions of perceived risk contributed to mosquito avoidance behaviors in a flood-prone area. Mosquito avoidance behaviors were classified into proactive (i.e. used repellant sources) and withdrawal/reactive (i.e. reduced outside activities) behaviors. After controlling for level of mosquito bites, increased scores for above normal perceived risk were associated with withdrawal/reactive avoidance behaviors; whereas, increased scores for normal perceived risk were associated with proactive avoidance behaviors. Efforts to improve mosquito avoidance behaviors should distinguish the type of perceived risk and the type of avoidance behavior. Greater congruence between perceived risk (i.e. normal risk of mosquito-borne illnesses) and avoidance behaviors (i.e. planning avoidance behaviors) will increase the effectiveness of education programs for disease prevention.
