“…Leaders within the emergency management and recovery context are vital to the success of their organisations and the achievement of desired outcomes (Maxfield & Russell 2017). Leaders must navigate complex challenges when working with employees and volunteers, as well as community members and volunteer groups to undertake a variety of vital services including response and recovery as well as mitigation and preparedness (Jensen & Kirkpatrick 2022: Alshayhan & Yusuf 2021, Lin, Kelemen & Kiyomiya 2017.…”

Measuring capability maturity for severe-tocatastrophic disasters Search and rescue decision-making and the role of expertise and risk assessment About the journalThe Australian Journal of Emergency Management is Australia's premier journal in emergency management. Its format and content are developed with reference to peak emergency management organisations and the emergency management sectors-nationally and internationally. The journal focuses on both the academic and practitioner reader. Its aim is to strengthen capabilities in the sector by documenting, growing and disseminating an emergency management body of knowledge. The journal strongly supports the role of the Australian Institute for Disaster Resilience as a national centre of excellence for knowledge and skills development in the emergency management sector. Papers are published in all areas of emergency management. The journal encourages empirical reports but may include specialised theoretical, methodological, case study and review papers and opinion pieces.

“…Departments of local governments at all levels in China are not affiliated with each other, which makes it difficult to quickly coordinate resources and decisions during emergencies [3]. Therefore, governments at all levels need to integrate the various resources of different departments to strengthen cross-departmental collaboration [4,5]. For this purpose, departments at all levels in China have launched a series of attempts to improve Sustainability 2023, 15, 8620 2 of 16 the efficiency of cross-department emergency management.…”

Cross-Department Coordination of Emergency Management (CDCEM) is considered a critical dimension in China to solve the problem of emergency management. The Decision Experiment and Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) is a method used to build the structural correlation of criteria in uncertain environments to identify critical success factors (CSFs). There are coupling correlations and one-way correlations for interrelationship comparisons between selected factors of CDCEM. Therefore, there are two different assessment scales. However, most previous studies applied the DEMATEL method with a single assessment scale to identify CSFs. To fill this gap, an IFS-IVIFS-DEMATEL method is provided to comprehensively identify the CSFs of CDCEM in this study. The intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS) is regarded as the assessment scales of coupling correlation, and the interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFIVS) is regarded as the assessment scales of one-way correlation. The two different types of assessment scales were transformed into interval information in the improved approach. Then, using the conduction correlation among factors, a comprehensive correlation matrix was constructed. After that, the ranking of the central degree and cause degree of the factors according to the traditional DEMATEL method was obtained. Finally, a case study of Nanjing’s CDCEM was illustrated to demonstrate that the proposed method is more suitable and reasonable. It is found that the factors of “cross-department organization”, “cross-department information communication and transmission”, “information sharing technology platform”, “cross-department material supply capability”, and “cross-department prediction and early warning” in Nanjing are CSFs in CDCEM, which should be emphasized to strengthen CDCEM. The findings of this study shed light on the cross-department coordination of emergency management mechanisms in uncertain situations, which would be beneficial for improving the efficiency of governmental management.

“…Applications of comprehensive emergency management (CEM) may be necessary when earthquakes occur. The process of CEM encompasses all stakeholders, all hazards, all risks, and phases of the emergency management cycle (i.e., emergency prevention/mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery) (Jensen and Kirkpatrick 2022 ). Due to grandiose (or ideal) management, it has been extremely difficult for the field to significantly accomplish the CEM objective.…”
