As part of a study of nuclear power development in Japan and the United States, surveys of perceptions of risk toward 30 activities, substances, and technologies have been carried out in the Pacific Northwest and Tokyo, Japan. The results show that people in both countries have the highest level of dread toward nuclear waste disposal, nuclear accidents, and nuclear war, greater even than their dread of crime and AIDS. In addition to comparisons of dread, the paper also discusses similarities and differences between Japanese and American responses for other dimensions of risk perception.
作为对日本和美国核电发展研究的一部分,在日本东京和美国太平洋西北地区开展了针对30种活动、物质和技术的风险认知调查。结果显示,两国民众对核废料处理、核事故和核战争的恐惧程度最高,甚至超过了对犯罪和艾滋病的恐惧。除了对恐惧程度的比较,本文还讨论了日美两国在风险认知其他维度上反应的异同。
