“…Sundeen (1992) points out in the results of his research that citizens with a higher level of education are more interested in providing help. It can be said that they have more positive attitudes about volunteering compared to citizens with lower levels of education (Ledić, 2007;Cvetković et al, 2015).…”

“…When it comes to motives for providing assistance, it has been found that its various forms are conditioned by various motives (Houle, Sagarin, & Kaplan, 2005;Gazley & Brudney, 2005;Cvetković et al, 2015, Cvetković, 2016. Brand et al (2008) identify three types of volunteer motivation: material benefits, gaining information; solidary benefits, group membership, social status, personal recognition; and purposive benefits, meeting organization goals.…”

The subject of quantitative research is to examine the factors influencing citizens' attitudes towards assisting vulnerable people and volunteering during natural disasters. In this paper, the authors examine the relationship between gender, age, level of education, marital status, employment, income level and perception of personal religiosity, and the attitudes to assisting vulnerable people and volunteering. Multiple-point random sampling was used to survey 2500 citizens in the area of 19 local communities endangered by the consequences of natural disasters. The results of the survey show that 29% of respondents would provide assistance to vulnerable people in the form of money, 18,2% in the form of food and water, 21,6% in clothing and footwear, 23,3% would volunteer, while 4,6% would engage in shelter centers for endangered people. In addition, it was found that there was no statistically significant relationship between the attitudes towards providing assistance in the form of money and the employment status. As well as, attitudes about volunteering and provision of food and water assistance are not related to the employment status of respondents, etc. The results of the research can be used to improve the management system in natural disasters and to create appropriate educational programs for establishing a more efficient and comprehensive system of assistance to vulnerable people and the operation of volunteer organizations.

Aпстракт: У научној литератури, домаћој и светској, теоријско одређење и класификација природних катастрофа представља веома актуелно питање. Неопходност и мотивисаност аутора за успостављање концизних дефиниција произилази из потребе јасног разграничења катастрофа од свега осталог, а најпре од њему сродних концепата као што су опасности, кризе и ризици. Свакако, интерес од дефинисања произилази из потребе да се опише област проучавања и створе услови за акумулацију знања и изградњу теорија. При томе, истраживачи из области студија катастрофа, сусрећу се и са дискусијама и дебатама око разграничења појмовног одређења катастрофа од ванредних ситуација. Резултати истраживања показују да је теоријско одређење природних катастрофа пратило: друштвени амбијент у чијим оквирима је и настало, научну дисциплину из које је потекло, сврху, географски регион настанка итд. Када се посматра њихов настанак, примећује се да су прве дефиниције дате од стране лингвиста и да су оне у великој мери одржавале специфичности културе и језика у склопу кога су и настале. Временом су еволуирале у складу са вишестраним променама у свету. Велики број њих, иако на први поглед противречне, настају у оквиру истог категоричног домена. Почивају на различитим теоријским и емпиријским основама. Такође, није исто дефинисање катастрофе као феномена или области проучавања. Истраживачи често упадају у замку да концептуалне основе феномена као што је катастрофа, замењују објашњењима шта чини и како друштво делује у таквим ситуацијама. Предмет рада представља теоријско одређење и класификација природних катастрофа, са посебним освртом на њене последице.Кључне речи: природна катастрофа, феноменологија, дефиниција, класификација, последице.

“…There are some studies on earthquake preparedness that have assessed the readiness of individuals based on their knowledge and skills [11][12][13].

Background : Earthquakes are one of the most destructive natural disasters in which many people are injured, disabled, or died. Although Iran has only one percent of the world's population, its earthquake-related deaths are six percent. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the level of earthquake preparedness of households and its predictors using the Health Belief Model (HBM) . Methods : This observational descriptive and analytical study was conducted on 933 households in Hamadan province, located in the west of Iran, in 2019. Multistage random cluster sampling was used for selecting the participants. The inclusion criteria were being at least 18 years old and being able to answer the questions. A questionnaire was used for data collection including earthquake preparedness, awareness of earthquake response, predictors of earthquake preparedness based on the HBM, and demographic information. Analysis of variance, independent t-test, and a linear regression model was used . Results : The mean age of participants was approximately 38.29 ±12.80 years. Furthermore, 60.83% of the participants did not complete a post-secondary education. The earthquake preparedness was low (approximately 30%) among households. There was a significant relationship between earthquake preparedness and gender, homeownership, marriage status, and previous earthquake experience (P <0.001). Regarding the HBM constructs, perceived benefits, cues to action, and self-efficacy were significant predictors of earthquake preparedness (P <0.01). conclusions: Earthquake preparedness was insufficient. Besides, perceived benefits, cues to action, and self-efficacy were predictors of earthquake preparedness. It is suggested that health providers take into account these predictors for designing future interventions. Keywords : Crises, Hazards, Health promotion, Health education, Natural disasters, Safety
