由于人口增长、全球化和环境变化等各种因素，人类越来越容易受到自然灾害和技术灾害的影响。为了防止不必要的生命损失、人类痛苦和财产损失，世界各国现在认识到预警系统是风险沟通的一个组成部分。目前的工作回顾了一些理论框架，描述了公众如何对警告作出反应。它试图确定有效警报的组成部分和可用于判断警报系统是否成功实施的评价技术。我们的目标是在讨论恐怖主义作为灾害预警案例研究之前，先描述影响灾害预警的变量。最后，对国际灾害警报领域未来研究的影响进行了讨论。(C)2012爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
Due to a variety of factors such as population growth, globalization, and environmental change, mankind is increasingly susceptible to both natural and technological disasters. To prevent the unnecessary loss of life, human suffering, and property loss, nations around the world now recognize that warning systems are an integral part of risk communication. The current work reviews a number of theoretical frameworks that describe how the public responds to warnings. It seeks to identify the components of effective warnings and evaluative techniques that can be used to judge successful implementation of warning systems. Our goal is to describe the variables that influence disaster warnings in general before discussing terrorism as a case study in disaster warning. Lastly, implications for future research in the area of international disaster warnings are discussed. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
