Perceptions, knowledge and mitigation are factors that might play a role in preventing injury and loss of life during a major earthquake.(2) Little is known about the relationships between different demographic and educational parameters and these factors. A national representative sample of 495 adults was investigated in order to determine the relationship between demographic and educational parameters in terms of the perceived threat, perceived coping, knowledge and mitigation of earthquakes in Israel. Compared to females, males perceived the threat of earthquakes to be lower (t = 3.183, p = 0.002), manifested higher levels of perceived coping (t = 2.55, p = 0.011), and had higher levels of earthquake related knowledge (t = 2.047, p = 0.041). We conclude that there are gender differences in perceptions and knowledge regarding earthquakes.
感知、知识和缓解措施是可能在预防大地震中人员伤亡方面发挥作用的因素。（2）对于不同人口统计学和教育参数与这些因素之间的关系，人们知之甚少。为了确定人口统计学和教育参数之间的关系，我们对以色列的 495 名成年人进行了全国代表性抽样调查，以确定感知威胁、感知应对、地震知识和缓解措施方面的关系。与女性相比，男性认为地震的威胁较低（t = 3.183，p = 0.002），表现出更高水平的感知应对能力（t = 2.55，p = 0.011），并且具有更高水平的地震相关知识（t = 2.047，p = 0.041）。我们的结论是，对于地震的感知和知识存在性别差异。
