“…People who face unfamiliar natural hazards rely more on expert sources to evaluate information, make risk judgments, and take preparedness actions. In this sense, if people face known natural hazards, trust may not influence risk judgments and preparedness measures (DeYoung & Peters, 2016;Han et al, 2021;Paton, 2007Paton, , 2008.…”

The influence of risk awareness and government trust on risk perception and preparedness for natural hazards

Risk perception is considered the primary motivator for taking preparedness actions. But people with prior experience and a high‐risk perception are not necessarily more prepared. This relationship is even more complex when assessing preparedness levels for hazards with different characteristics. These inconsistent findings can be explained by how preparedness has been measured and the influence of other factors, such as trust and risk awareness. Thus, the main goal of this study was to analyze the role of risk awareness and trust in authorities on risk perception and intention to prepare for natural hazards in a coastal city in Chile. A representative sample of the city of Concepción, located in the center‐south zone of Chile (n = 585), completed a survey. We measured risk awareness, risk perception, trust in authorities, and intention to prepare for two hazards: earthquakes/tsunamis and floods. Through structural equation models, we tested five hypotheses. We found that the perception of risk maintained a direct and positive influence on the intention to prepare for both hazards. The results showed that awareness and risk perception influence the intention to prepare and should be considered different concepts. Finally, trust did not significantly influence risk perception when faced with known hazards for the population. Implications for understanding the relationship between risk perception and direct experience are discussed.

“…However, trust may not significantly influence risk judgments or motivation to take preparedness measures if people face known hazards. Based on their prior experience, they may consider the information they hold as sufficient to face a threat (DeYoung & Peters, 2016; Han et al., 2021; Paton, 2008).…”

“…In studies on risk perception and acceptance of danger, trust is considered an explanatory variable 36 . The relationship between trust and risk perception is studied by risk management researchers and it has been found that individuals' risk perceptions show differences based on cultural context and risk factors and there is a strong connection between perceived risk probability and trust 37,38 .…”

The COVID-19 pandemic is a rapidly spreading virus outbreak affecting the lives of people globally in terms of health, economy, social and psychological aspects. Governments have taken various measures to protect the functioning of societal life and individual health. To prevent the spread of the virus in society, measures such as lockdown, travel restrictions, ban on gatherings in enclosed spaces, closure of certain businesses, school closures and transition to remote learning were taken. In addition, on an individual level, measures such as wearing masks, practicing personal hygiene and maintaining physical distance were taken. The uncertainty of the situation has weakened people's sense of security. Health concerns, job losses, social isolation, financial turmoil and low morale have increased people's worries about the future. The long-term effects of the pandemic are still not fully understood, but it is known that the sense of security plays a significant role in both the quality and level of life of society and individuals. The sense of security of individuals is important in every aspect of life and the loss of this feeling can negatively impact their economic, physical, emotional, and social health. This study, conducted using a literature review method, aimed to identify the psycho-social and economic problems arising during the pandemic process. The results of the study indicated that the pandemic experienced globally caused serious problems for both individuals and society and that these problems are likely to have impacts in the "new normal" life after the pandemic.

“…An implicit degree of confidence is connected with each attribution made at the same moment. 92 , 93 Researchers must concentrate on how each attribution foresees feedback outcomes, despite employees demonstrating distinct personality features when they make mixed-up attributions. For example, an employee may believe that their boss offers them negative feedback to help them perform better, but they may also think that the supervisor is in an evil mood.…”

Purpose One of the most exciting aspects of organisational psychology is the study of shame and the factors that lead up to it. The purpose of this study was to examine the relation between supervisor negative feedback and task performance. Further, we examined the mediating role of shame between supervisor negative feedback and task performance and the moderating role of self-esteem. Methods Employees working full-time in educational institutions across Pakistan were selected to collect data from the respondents. By using a convenience sampling technique, 258 employees participated in the study. The data were collected in three phases to reduce the problem of the common variance bias. Direct paths were tested by using simple linear regression (SPSS V.25). Hayes (2017) PROCESS macro model 4 was used for mediation and model 1 for moderation. Results The findings revealed that negative feedback from supervisors is linked positively with employees’ task performance. Further, shame partially mediates the relation between supervisor negative feedback and tas performance. When self-esteem is high, negative feedback and task performance were more strongly associated than low. Discussion This study has theoretical and practical implications and is based on the well-known theory of psychology ie affective events theory (AET), which states that workplace events cause emotions, influencing work attitudes and actions. This study fills the gap which is unknown to the scholars and practitioners in understanding that supervisor negative feedback is helpful to enhance employee task performance via feeling shame.
