Abstract:
Objective To investigate tourists′knowledge level of DRM ( Disaster risk management ) and influencing factors to provide evidence for the development of community disaster nursing .Methods A cross-sectional and correlation survey was adopted .A self-developed questionnaire was designed based on literature review, expert consultation and research team′s discussion.A total of 288 tourists completed the survey.Data was analyzed using descriptive analysis , analysis of variance , non-parametric and multiple linear regression analysis to identify factors influencing the level of knowledge on DRM .Results Score of knowledge on DRM among tourists before, during and after typhoon was (30.14 ±4.96),(31.76 ±3.55) and (17.90 ± 2.07) respectively on average .The major factors influencing knowledge of DRM were living areas ( urban or rural, coastal city or non-coastal city) and level of education (P<0.05).Conclusions The overall perceived level of knowledge on DRM among tourists before , during and after typhoon is relatively high , but the level of knowledge on DRM before disaster is significantly lower than during and after disaster .To reduce vulnerability among tourists, disaster education should not only focus on disaster response and recovery , but also on disaster prevention and preparedness , especially for those who are coming from rural areas and those who have lower level of education .
