Description

This study examines how the provision of emergency messaging during flood events is perceived by members of the community; whether it correctly prompts the correct risk assessment; and whether messages prompt the desired behavior. Experimental conditions are applied to determine the correlation between an individual's innate risk tolerance and the perceived risk they associate with a series of flood-related image prompts.

Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.

Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
