本研究旨在探讨亚裔美国人与美国其他主要种族（白人、非裔美国人和土著美国人）在灾害准备感知上的差异，以及信息寻求行为和自我效能（即进行准备行为的感知能力）如何介导这些种族差异。所用数据来自美国联邦紧急事务管理局进行的2017年全国家庭调查，包括4,493名受访者。采用百分位数和偏倚校正自举法进行多中介分析。结果表明，亚裔美国人的感知准备水平低于白人和土著美国人。亚裔美国人较低的自我效能水平解释了他们在感知灾难准备方面与白人、非洲裔美国人和土著美国人相比的劣势。亚裔美国人相对于印第安人的劣势也归因于较少的信息寻求行为。基于这些研究结果，与灾害相关的社会工作服务和干预策略可以制定，以改善亚裔美国人社区内的备灾机制，减少灾害规划中的种族差异。
This study aimed to examine the differences in perceived disaster preparedness between Asian Americans and other major races in the USA, namely, Whites, African Americans and Native Americans, and how information-seeking behaviours and self-efficacy (i.e. perceived ability in conducting preparedness behaviours) mediated these racial differences. Data used were from the 2017 National Household Survey conducted by US Federal Emergency Management Agency and included 4,493 respondents. Multiple mediation analysis with percentile and bias-corrected bootstrapping was performed. Results showed that the perceived preparedness level of Asian Americans was lower than that of Whites and Native Americans. Asian Americans’ lower level of self-efficacy explained their disadvantages in perceived disaster preparedness compared with Whites, African Americans and Native Americans. The disadvantages of Asian Americans relative to Native Americans were also attributed to fewer information-seeking behaviours. Based on these findings, disaster-related social work services and intervention strategies can be developed to improve the preparedness mechanisms within the Asian American community and reduce racial disparities in disaster planning.
