What is the nature of the decision-making process used by executives responsible for managing tourist-oriented service organizations confronting disaster evacuation advisories? No research has been directed toward this question. The proposed research has six objectives: 1) to assess plans made by executives responsible for tourist- oriented private firms to assist them in making decisions related to evacuation of their organization when threatened with disaster; 2) to identify factors that account for the variation in this planning; 3) to describe the sequence of behavior that culminates in actual evacuation decisions; 4) to identify factors that account for the variation in these decisions, e.g., social characteristics, organizational structures and community qualities; 5) to describe established and emergent organizational policies designed to guide employee behavior; and 6) to formulate policy recommendations for emergency managers and business executives. A two-phased comparative field study methodology will be used. Phase I field studies will assess evacuation planning in three different sized exemplary communities and will identify factors that account for variation. Phase II field studies will be completed following two major disasters, actual or threatened, wherein evacuations occurred.

负责管理面向游客的服务组织的高管在面对灾难疏散建议时所采用的决策过程的性质是什么？ 还没有针对这个问题的研究。 拟议的研究有六个目标：1）评估负责旅游导向型私营公司的高管制定的计划，以协助他们在遭受灾难威胁时做出与组织疏散相关的决策； 2) 确定导致该计划变化的因素； 3) 描述最终做出实际疏散决定的行为顺序； 4）确定导致这些决策变化的因素，例如社会特征、组织结构和社区质量； 5）描述旨在指导员工行为的已建立的和新出现的组织政策； 6) 为应急管理人员和企业高管制定政策建议。 将使用两阶段比较实地研究方法。 第一阶段实地研究将评估三个不同规模的示范社区的疏散规划，并确定造成变化的因素。 第二阶段实地研究将在发生两次重大灾害（无论是实际灾害还是威胁灾害）并发生疏散后完成。
