The disaster at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) remains unresolved because the estimated time to decommission a nuclear reactor appears to be approximately 40 years. The number of workers exposed to radiation doses ranging from 1 to 100 mSv continues to increase. To understand the accident progression at Fukushima and to anticipate what we should do in the future for occupational and environmental health, we performed a survey of citizens and doctors who lived inside and outside Fukushima in 2011 and 2013. In a comparison of these 2 years, the citizens inside Fukushima continue to suffer anxiety, although those living outside Fukushima tended to feel less anxious. Medical students who had recently studied radiation biology showed much less ongoing anxiety compared with other groups, suggesting that learning about the effects of radiation is essential to understanding one's own circumstances objectively and correctly. The lack of trust in the government and in the Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) in 2013 remains high in all groups. Therefore, long-term forthright explanations from the government, TEPCO, and radiation experts are indispensable not only to establish trust with people but also to alleviate psychological stress.
福岛第一核电站（FDNPP）事故仍未得到解决，因为核反应堆退役的预计时间似乎约为40年。暴露于1至100毫希弗辐射剂量的工人数量持续增加。为了解福岛事故的发展过程，并预测我们未来在职业和环境卫生方面应采取的措施，我们在2011年和2013年对福岛内外的居民和医生进行了调查。在这两年的比较中，福岛内部的居民仍感到焦虑，而福岛外部的居民焦虑感有所减轻。与其他群体相比，最近学习过辐射生物学的医学生持续焦虑感要少得多，这表明了解辐射的影响对于客观、正确地认识自身情况至关重要。2013年，所有群体对政府和东京电力公司（TEPCO）的信任度仍然很低。因此，政府、东京电力公司和辐射专家进行长期坦率的解释不仅对于与民众建立信任不可或缺，而且对于减轻心理压力也必不可少。
