- W1875543883 abstract "This chapter focuses on the sociological dimensions of earthquake mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery. Social scientists have identified several “natural” societal groupings (or “units of analysis”) by which they can organize their research in the field: the individual, family, organizations, and communities. Individuals and families are the two main groupings for research investigations on disasters. These two populations are usually at the forefront when one investigates the impacts of such events. Considerable research has been done with populations concerning earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, and other disasters. Mitigation is one of the major avenues available in preparing for possible disasters. Mitigation includes policies and actions taken before an event that are intended to minimize the extent of damage and injury when an event occurs. The following are some of the possible mitigation activities available: (1) land-use management, (2) insurance, (3) engineered protection works, (4) construction standards, (5) disaster response plans, and (6) emergency warning systems. Preparedness is another critical component of behavior under investigation. Designing sustainable hazards mitigation will not eliminate the need for emergency preparedness and response to the destruction and loss of human life related to disasters. Socioeconomic factors have a profound impact on household preparedness. For example, households with higher socioeconomic status tend to be better prepared than others. The post disaster period is an opportunity to upgrade the quality of construction to better resist subsequent events and to begin to think through ways of mitigating future damage." @default.
