“…Thus it is appropriate to seek ways of applying technology to NDR (Raka & Astawa, 2014). For example, because technology can help to reduce risks in the built environment, it is useful to implement natural hazards warning systems, such as those related to hurricane and lightning occurrences (David & Rangaswamy, 2014); b) A useful technological process needs to be creative and innovative; Existing technologies are replaced if they can be improved upon, while novel methods, which are developed through original thinking to support NDR, are both creative and innovative. For example, modern seismographs to detect earthquakes are innovative in that they make use of smart technologies to be more sensitive (Dunnahoe, 2016); c) Technology improves; The more useful technology is, the better.…”

This research seeks to evaluate students’ intended behavioural actions in the event of a natural hazard, specifically hurricane, lightning, earthquake, or tsunami. A test instrument, measuring behavioural actions in the event of a natural hazard, and related NOS/NOT beliefs and dispositions, is utilized to collect data in Estonia, USA and Japan (N=2323). Results suggest that students responded adequately to tsunamis and lightning strikes, but to a lesser extent for hurricanes and earthquakes. Results also suggest a connection between dispositions and behavioural actions, but a lack of connection between generalised. NOS/NOT conceptualisations and behavioural actions. Results imply that students find it difficult to apply their learning to new situations requiring responsible behavioural actions. Implications indicate that NOS/NOT are not well understood, while responsible behavioural actions need to more heavily stressed in teaching about natural hazards involving the promotion of student values and attitudes with respect to Natural Disaster Reduction (NDR). Keywords: behavioural action, Natural Disaster Reduction (NDR), dispositions, Natural Hazards (NH), Nature of Science (NOS), Nature of Technology (NOT).
