In this paper, we present a research agenda for longitudinal risk communication during a global pandemic. Starting from an understanding that traditional approaches to risk communication for epidemics, crises, and disasters have focused on short-duration events, we acknowledge the limitations of existing theories, frameworks, and models for both research and practice in a rapidly changing communication environment. We draw from scholarship in communication, sociology, anthropology, public health, emergency management, law, and technology to identify research questions that are fundamental to the communication challenges that have emerged under the threat of COVID-19. We pose a series of questions focused around 5 topics, then offer a catalog of prior research to serve as points of departure for future research efforts. This compiled agenda offers guidance to scholars engaging in practitioner-informed research and provides risk communicators with a set of substantial research questions to guide future knowledge needs.
在本文中，我们提出了一个在全球大流行期间进行纵向风险沟通的研究议程。从理解传统的传染病、危机和灾害风险沟通方法侧重于短期事件出发，我们承认在快速变化的沟通环境中，现有理论、框架和模型在研究和实践方面都存在局限性。我们借鉴了传播学、社会学、人类学、公共卫生、应急管理、法律和技术方面的学术研究，以确定与 COVID-19 威胁下出现的沟通挑战相关的基本研究问题。我们围绕 5 个主题提出了一系列问题，然后提供了一份先前研究目录，作为未来研究工作的起点。这份综合议程为从事以从业者为导向的研究的学者提供了指导，并为风险沟通者提供了一系列重要的研究问题，以指导未来的知识需求。
