Effects of Risk Perception on Disaster Preparedness Toward Typhoons: An Application of the Extended Theory of Planned Behavior

“…Disaster preparedness behavior refers to the personal undertaking of activities or measures before a hazard event in order to mitigate the severity of disaster impacts (Dasgupta et al 2020). Although the connotations of disaster preparedness behavior are varied in time, place, and type of natural hazard (Fung and Loke 2010), two common components can be found in the majority of existing literature: preparing an emergency kit and making an emergency plan (Paul and Bhuiyan 2010;Kohn et al 2012;Lam et al 2017).…”

“…In the context of hazard studies, the theory of planned behavior had been successfully used to explain the behavioral adjustments related to natural hazards (for example, earthquakes (Najafi et al 2017), and typhoons (Dasgupta et al 2020)), and threats of anthropogenic origins (for example, terrorist attacks (Tan et al 2020)).…”

“…Disaster preparedness refers to activities and measures taken in advance to ensure an effective response to the impact of hazards (Paton 2019;Dasgupta et al 2020). Preparedness increases people's capacity to cope, adapt, respond, and recover when disaster strikes.…”

Statistical estimation of spatial wave extremes for tropical cyclones from small data samples: validation of the STM-E approach using long-term synthetic cyclone data for the Caribbean Sea

“…In 2017, hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria caused record losses within just 4 weeks totalling more than USD 9 × 10 10 (https://www.munichre.com/ en/risks/natural-disasters-losses-are-trending-upwards/ hurricanes-typhoons-cyclones.html#-1979426458, last access: 1 February 2022). Tropical cyclones present multiple hazards, including large damaging winds, high waves, storm surges, and heavy rainfall, as exemplified by Typhoon Hagibis in Japan (see context description in Dasgupta et al, 2020) or Cyclone Idai in Mozambique in 2019 (https://data.jrc.ec.europa.eu/dataset/ 4f8c752b-3440-4e61-a48d-4d1d9311abfa, last access: 1 February 2022).…”

“…winds, high waves, storm surges, and heavy rainfall, as exemplified by Typhoon Hagibis in Japan (see context description in Dasgupta et al 2020) or Cyclone Idai in Mozambique in 2019. 2 Waves are one of the major hazard associated with tropical cyclones, of critical importance regarding marine flooding, especially for volcanic islands like those in the Lesser Antilles -North Atlantic ocean basin (Krien et al 2015), in the Hawaï -Northeast Pacific ocean basin (Kennedy et al 2012), or in the Reunion Island -Southwest Indian ocean basin (Lecacheux et al 2021).…”
