서울시민의 재난안전 인식 연구

Abstract

This study aims to diagnose the level of disaster safety awareness among Seoul residents and to strengthen disaster safety awareness as an initial step toward building a disaster-safe community. Due to rapid urbanization and population growth, Seoul has become a central area where people live and economic activities are concentrated. As a result, it creates enormous socio-economic value and is exposed to potentially serious disasters and risks. Natural disasters (earthquakes, floods, etc.) and social disasters (fires, accidents) have a more devastating impact in large cities. Therefore, disaster safety has emerged as one of the key challenges of modern society and is strongly influenced by emergency response capabilities, effective prevention and preparedness plans, and citizens' perceptions of disaster safety. Based on the survey data of 1,000 Seoul residents in 2021 conducted by the Seoul Institute, this study used E-stat 3.0, a statistical program of the Korea Social Science Data Center (KSDC), to study disaster safety awareness using frequency analysis and analysis of variance, and the results of the study are expected to derive measures to improve disaster safety awareness at the local level and serve as a resource for strengthening disaster safety awareness not only in Seoul but also in other large cities.
