台灣位於地震帶,而地震所引發之海嘯災害常造成嚴重損失。本研究以屏東縣東港鎮、林邊鄉及佳冬鄉等三個沿海鄉(鎮)居民為研究對象,利用問卷調查來探討居民對海嘯災害之認知及防災知能;問卷調查回收樣本計284份,有效樣本為181份,有效率為64.2%。問卷內容分為基本資料、所屬鄉鎮災害背景與受災經歷、災害防救觀念認知、政府救災能量與效能等四部分;問卷結果將利用調查研究法、描述性統計及重要-表現程度分析法來進行分析。 由分析結果可得知三鄉(鎮)居民的所屬鄉鎮災害背景與受災經歷無明顯差異,而受災經驗對於居民瞭解鄉鎮之災害潛勢有明顯正相關。對於災害防救觀念認知及民眾海嘯防救觀念之重要程度分析結果均以佳冬鄉平均值最低、林邊鄉居次、東港鎮最高。而民眾災害防救觀念認知優先改進的項目以我會從網路、媒體等各種管道學習防災知識與訊息,並配合準備災害防救工作為重。民眾海嘯防救觀念則以政府重視海嘯災害應變及搶救規劃、辦理海嘯演習與嘯哨音警報功能為日後推動優先改進的項目。
Taiwan is located at seismic belt. The tsunami disasters induced by earthquake often bring serious loss of lives and properties. This study investigated the tsunami disaster cognition and disaster prevention skill and knowledge with questionnaire of inhabitants lived in Donggang, Linban and Jiadon Townships along the coast area, Pingtung County. Total 284 copies of questionnaires were returned, in which effective samples were 181 copies and the effective rate was 64.2%. The questionnaire content included basic information, experience of disaster, disaster prevention cognition and knowledge, and the disaster rescue capacity and efficiency of government. The results of questionnaires were analyzed by descriptive statistics and important - performance analysis (IPA) methods. The results showed that disasters background and experiences were no significant difference among the three studied township residents. However, the disaster experiences have significantly positive correlation with the understanding the potential disaster for residents. The importance analysis for the concept of disaster prevention and cognition for tsunami was lowest performance in Jiadon Township, followed in Linban Township, and highest performance in Donggang Township. The priority improvement subjects for disaster prevention and rescue were emergency information obtained and prepared rescue tools. The priority improvement subjects for prevention and relief in the tsunami were government pay attention to the tsunami disaster response, complete rescue planning, and tsunami whistle alarm function.
