“…PADM is a framework used for understanding protective human behavior and decision making during a disaster or threatening event (Strahan and Watson 2019;Liddle et al 2020). The model was originally developed to understand how people take protective actions when confronted with environmental threats, but it has recently been applied more broadly to understand how people respond to risks in multiple contexts (Liu et al 2019).…”

“…Following the pre-decision, threat perception, protective action perceptions, and stakeholder perceptions occur simultaneously (Lindell and Perry 2012). During this stage, individuals decide whether a real threat exists, the needs for protective actions, and how they are viewing the issue (Strahan and Watson 2019). Theoretically, the perceptions should inform whether and how individuals act when faced with a threat (Heath et al 2018).…”

“…Theoretically, the perceptions should inform whether and how individuals act when faced with a threat (Heath et al 2018). Perceptions ultimately inform information search strategies and protective action decision making, which eventually results in a behavioral response (Strahan and Watson 2019). However, once a behavioral response is initiated the process is not over; instead, it loops back to the beginning stages of the PADM (Strahan and Watson 2019).…”

To reduce flood losses, floodplain managers make decisions on how to effectively manage their community’s flood risks. While there is a growing body of research that examines how individuals and households make decisions to manage their flood risks, far less attention has been directed at understanding the decision-making processes for flood management at the community level. This study aimed to narrow this research gap by examining floodplain managers’ perceptions of the quality of their community’s flood management decision-making processes. Data gathered from interviews with 200 floodplain managers in the United States indicate that most floodplain managers perceive their community’s flood management decision-making processes to be good. The results also indicate that communities participating in the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s Community Rating System, as well as communities with a higher level of concern for flooding and a lower poverty rate, are significantly more likely to report better flood management decision-making processes.

“…In summary, current literatures are devoted to exploring the influential factors of protective coping behaviors, but the results vary from study-to-study. Studying and expanding the analytical framework of coping behaviors, such as protection motivation theory [ 26 , 27 ], protective action decision model [ 28 , 29 ], flood-risk precautionary behavior [ 30 ], etc. For example, the frame of protection motivation theory includes flood experience, barriers and socio-economic factors as additional factors to explain their influence on coping behaviors [ 31 ].…”

As the risk of urban flooding increases worldwide, floods seriously endanger the safety of people’s lives and property. Understanding the protective coping behaviors of the public in flood disasters is crucial to the implementation of effective flood mitigation measures and flood risk management. In this study, influential factors affecting protective coping behaviors in the face of flood disasters were identified, and the effects of these factors were discussed as well. Shenzhen City in China was selected as the study area, in which a questionnaire survey of 339 respondents was carried out in three flood-prone districts. Correlation analysis was conducted to preselect potential influential factors. Then, two linear regression models were established to identify main influential factors and to explore the interaction effects of these factors. The results indicated that age, monthly income, flood experience, trust in government and insurance willingness were main influential factors of protective coping behaviors. Trust in government had the highest positive correlation coefficient, while monthly income and age were negatively associated with protective coping behaviors. The interaction between insurance willingness and monthly income jointly affected protective coping behaviors of the public. The findings of this study could help authorities better understand the public’s intention to cope with flood and design effective risk reduction measures, not only for Shenzhen, but also for many other similar cities that facing with the same situation.
