“…The strong influence of flu shot confidence on COVID-19 vaccination intentions might be due to the perception of similar infection mechanisms on respiratory system between influenza and COVID-19 [33] ; WHO, 2021). Previous studies have indicated that people would be more likely to use an availability heuristic—responding to an emerging threat by using a familiar protective action to a similar previous threat [35] , [75] . Hence, given that the influenza vaccine is known to protect individuals from the threats of fever, cough, and throat pain [94] , it is not surprising that respondents imagined and linked COVID-19 vaccine with influenza vaccine as they share some similar respiratory symptoms (WHO, 2021).…”

“…We took into account the positive role of earthquake knowledge in seismic preparedness (Hua et al, 2020; Yari et al, 2019). Respondents were asked to answer whether they had the following general knowledge: ‘In China, earthquakes are characterized by high frequency, high intensity, wide distribution and serious consequences.…”

“…Assertions about the positive correlations between risk perception and preparedness have been made in diverse studies (Flynn et al, 1999; Hua et al, 2020; Jackson, 1981; Lindell & Perry, 2000; Lindell & Hwang, 2008; Miceli et al, 2008). Cognitive and emotional psychology theory (Loewenstein et al, 2001; Slovic et al, 2004) provides support for the relationship between risk perception and preparedness.…”

Despite the numerous studies focused on the sociopsychological factors involved in seismic preparedness, we have limited knowledge of the impact pathways from fatalism belief and optimism orientation to preparedness. This study proposed a theoretical model to examine the intertwined relationships among fatalism belief, optimism orientation, and risk perception regarding public seismic preparedness based on a survey in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region in China. The results indicate that fatalism belief can directly reduce an individual's seismic preparedness intention. In addition, such beliefs negatively moderate the positive relationship between the probability perception of earthquakes and skill preparedness. Moreover, optimism orientation has dual effects. On the one hand, it directly enhances the public's intention to prepare. On the other hand, it makes people underestimate their perceptions of the consequences of earthquakes, which indirectly reduces their willingness to materially prepare. Furthermore, we found that fatalism belief can negatively moderate the positive relationship between optimism orientation and material preparedness. These findings contribute to safety education for earthquake disaster risk reduction (EDRR) strategies, especially those used where fatalist culture is prevalent.

“…Earthquakes generally occur without forewarning, so in the event of an earthquake, there is a very short time for people to react (Hua et al, 2020). Hence, people should prepare before happening any earthquake event.…”

The Position and Importance of Earthquake Education in the World

Earthquake education is significant for students to raise awareness and improve knowledge related to earthquakes. Literature on earthquakes emphasizes that people with high awareness and increased knowledge can effectively cope with the devastating effects. At this point, traditional teaching methods, such as drills and theoretical lessons, are inadequate, but innovative methods like virtual reality (VR) technology is more promising. However, there is no consensus on the ideal type of earthquake education. In the world, earthquake education significantly differs. Even though some countries are located in regions that are prone to earthquakes, they do not consider earthquake education in schools. On the other hand, several countries include earthquake education in school curricula. Existing literature demonstrates the insufficiency of current earthquake education in countries like Mexico and Israel. Students have deficiencies in knowledge related to the earthquake in spite of the implementation of earthquake education in schools. Reviewing different countries implementing earthquake education allows us to create an ideal type of earthquake education. Therefore, this review aims to investigate earthquake education in different countries.
