“…Furthermore, literature in the field of disaster research investigated public behaviours in disaster situations (see Ejeta, Ardalan, & Paton, 2015, for a review). A relatively limited number of studies have also addressed citizens' actual or expected compliance with protective actions in nuclear accident situations and the potentially influencing factors (e.g., Crépey, Pivette, & Bar‐Hen, 2013; Cutter & Barnes, 1982; Hasegawa, Ohira, Maeda, Yasumura, & Tanigawa, 2016; Houts et al., 1984; Malešič, Prezelj, Juvan, Polič, & Uhan, 2015; Verbeeck, Bergmans, & Cools, 2017). However, such studies remain sparse, particularly in Europe where there is no systematic research carried out with representative samples of the population.…”
