The results of literature review show that the socially constructed gender-specific vulnerability of females lead to the relatively higher female disaster mortality rates compared to men; the disaster impact differ across economic class, ethnicity, gender and other factors; natural disasters exacerbate previously existing patterns of discrimination that render females more vulnerable to the fatal impact of disasters. The adverse impact of disasters on females relative to men vanishes with rising socio-economic status of women. However, more inter-disciplinary research is needed to fully understand the interplay between mortality and gender in the presence of natural disasters. More research is needed to fully understand why and how disaster strength interacts with female mortality.
文献综述结果表明，社会建构的女性特定性别脆弱性导致女性灾难死亡率相对高于男性；灾难影响因经济阶层、种族、性别和其他因素而异；自然灾害加剧了先前存在的歧视模式，使女性更容易受到灾难致命影响。随着女性社会经济地位的提高，灾难对女性相对于男性的不利影响会消失。然而，需要更多的跨学科研究来全面理解自然灾害情况下死亡率与性别的相互作用。需要更多研究来全面理解灾难强度为何以及如何与女性死亡率相互作用。
