Project Description
Summary:
View help for Summary
When and why do citizens comply with government policies and
restrictions during emergencies? We investigate possible answers to this
question. We
propose a mediation model where trust in government and emergency organizations
as well as perceived government effectiveness mediate the relationships between
participation in decision making and the willingness to comply. We also
utilize the protective action decision-making model where perceptions about
protective actions and threats can add to the explanation. Using a national survey distributed to a representative sample of
the Israeli population during the wake of a second wave of the spread of
Covid-19, we found that the willingness to comply during emergencies is related
to these research variables. Participation in decision-making appears to be the
main variable, but it is negatively
related to the willingness to comply. We conclude that the public sector should
develop and improve communication and participatory mechanisms with citizens specifically
for emergencies.
