Emergency Preparedness Survey
Household readiness, alert reach, and trust in official information.
4 questions · 1 page · about 2 minutes to answer · fully editable after you start
Emergency plans assume households will hear, understand, and act; this survey tests the assumptions before the siren does. It measures household readiness (supplies, plans, contacts), which alert channels actually reach residents, and trust in official information under pressure – the variable that decides whether instructions are followed.
The alert-channel data alone justifies the survey: populations shift between apps, SMS, radio, and word-of-mouth faster than emergency plans get rewritten.
