地方应急计划委员会(LEPC)的有效性的以前的研究已经受到强烈的影响,由州和联邦机构人员关注的实际问题和研究人员感兴趣的理论问题,但不一定由LEPC成员关注的问题。这个问题得到了解决,通过比较开放式的个人访谈的结果,从LEPC收集的调查数据,结合更广泛的调查180 LEPC椅子和1196 LEPC成员在中西部。个人访谈和标准化调查一般产生趋同的结果,但个人访谈也揭示了大量的冲突成员的概念LEPC的使命,外部角色关系,和人员配备。这一调查结果表明,标准化调查在某些领域需要改进,低收入国家方案委员会需要解决一些组织设计问题,以提高其效力。
Previous studies of Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) effectiveness have been influenced strongly by the practical issues of concern to state and federal agency personnel and by theoretical issues of interest to researchers, but not necessarily by issues that concern LEPC members. This problem was addressed by comparing the results of open-ended personal interviews with survey data collected from an LEPC in conjunction with a broader survey of 180 LEPC chairs and 1196 LEPC members in the Midwest. The personal interviews and standardized surveys generally produced convergent results, but the personal interviews also revealed a significant amount of conflict about members’ conceptions of the LEPC's mission, external role relationships, and staffing. This finding indicates that there are areas in which standardized surveys need to be improved and that LEPCs need to address a number of organizational design issues to increase their effectiveness.
