What are the social processes that pattern disaster evacuation behavior among transient populations? Little or no research has been directed toward this question. Transient populations are defined as persons who are not in the community where they normally reside at the time they initiate disaster evacuation behavior. There are at least four sub-types: tourists, business travellers, migrant workers, and people in the process of relocating (including the homeless). The research has five objectives: (1) to describe the sequence of behavior that culminates in actual evacuation from disaster sites among transient populations; (2) to describe the range of variation that may exist among these behavioral sequences among population sub-types, urban- rural event locations, and disaster phases (i.e., pre or post-impact evacuation); (3) to identify factors that account for the variation in these behavioral sequences, e.g., disaster warning receiver characteristics, warning message characteristics, social group qualities, organizational qualities and community characteristics; (4) document perceptions of transients who have been disaster victims regarding evacuation procedures implemented by governmental agency representatives and private sector organizational executives; and (5) formulate policy recommendations for emergency managers and business executives. In accordance with disaster design requirements, field interviews will be conducted following major disasters resulting from earthquakes and other agents in eight locations wherein large numbers of transients have evacuated.

影响流动人口灾难疏散行为的社会过程是什么？ 针对这个问题的研究很少或根本没有。 临时人群被定义为在发起灾难疏散行为时不在其通常居住的社区的人员。 至少有四种子类型：游客、商务旅行者、农民工和搬迁过程中的人（包括无家可归者）。 该研究有五个目标：（1）描述流动人群从灾难现场实际疏散的行为顺序； (2) 描述人口亚类、城乡事件地点和灾害阶段（即影响前或影响后疏散）之间这些行为序列可能存在的变异范围； (3) 识别导致这些行为序列变化的因素，例如灾害预警接收者特征、预警消息特征、社会群体素质、组织素质和社区特征； (4) 记录受灾临时居民对政府机构代表和私营部门组织高管实施的疏散程序的看法； (5) 为应急管理人员和企业高管制定政策建议。 根据灾害设计要求，在地震等重大灾害发生后，将在大量人员撤离的8个地点进行实地采访。
