在考虑住户对洪水风险的反应时，研究人员和政策制定者可能过于关注风险认知的影响以及对物质成本和收益的担忧。本文通过对经历过洪水或面临洪水风险的英国家庭的调查数据进行二次分析，提出证据表明，保护行为可能较少受到物质和经济因素的影响，而更多地受到焦虑和不安全感的影响。它还研究了关于保护和洪水的信念在调节洪水经历的影响中的作用，并表明经验降低了对保险改善能力的信心，并促进了这样的信念：保护措施会增加对洪水的焦虑。论文的结论是，应更多地研究预期情绪在风险应对中的作用，政策制定者和防护产品的设计者应更加关注情绪障碍和适应激励。
When considering householder responses to flood risk, researchers and policy makers have perhaps focused too much on the influence of risk perceptions and concerns about material costs and benefits. Using secondary analysis of survey data from UK households who had experienced flooding or who were at risk of flooding, this paper presents evidence to suggest that protective behaviour may be influenced less by material and financial considerations than by concerns about feelings of anxiety and insecurity. It also looks at the role of beliefs about protection and flooding in mediating the impacts of flood experience and suggests that experience reduces confidence in the ameliorative capacity of insurance and promotes the belief that protective measures increase anxiety about flooding. The paper concludes that more research should be carried out on the role of anticipated emotions in risk response and that policy makers and the designers of protection products should pay more attention to the emotional barriers and incentives to adaptation.
