摘要过去的研究表明，个人对天气预报信息的态度和行为各不相同。为了加深对这些变化的了解，本文探讨了1）人们对日常天气预报的来源、使用和感知的模式; 2）人们对天气预报的来源、使用和感知、他们的个人特征以及他们对天气和天气预报的经验之间的关系。它通过对美国公众的全国性调查数据进行因子和回归分析，并结合其他数据来实现这一目标。预测用途被纳入休闲活动和工作/学校相关活动的计划中，而知道天气会是什么样子和计划如何着装仍然是分开的。预测参数分解成降水参数和温度相关参数的重要性，这表明这些代表概念上不同的结构。回归分析表明，主要驱动因素多久p…
AbstractPast research has shown that individuals vary in their attitudes and behaviors regarding weather forecast information. To deepen knowledge about these variations, this article explores 1) patterns in people’s sources, uses, and perceptions of everyday weather forecasts; and 2) relationships among people’s sources, uses, and perceptions of forecasts, their personal characteristics, and their experiences with weather and weather forecasts. It does so by performing factor and regression analysis on data from a nationwide survey of the U.S. public, combined with other data. Forecast uses factored into planning for leisure activities and for work/school-related activities, while knowing what the weather will be like and planning how to dress remained separate. Forecast parameters factored into importance of precipitation parameters and of temperature-related parameters, suggesting that these represent conceptually different constructs. Regression analysis showed that the primary drivers for how often p...
