Differences in neural processes of tsunami evacuation decision-making by information type (conference poster presentation)
Posted in RESEARCH
Information processed during tsunami evacuation after an earthquake can be divided into two major types: descriptive information obtained from the media, such as seismic intensity and epicenter area, and sensory information obtained from the five senses through personal experience. We found that the cognitive process of evacuation decision-making is different between these two types of information, using a fictitious earthquake scenario and brain measurement experiments using fMRI. The results of this research, "Differences in neural processes of tsunami evacuation decision-making by information type: an fMRI study," was a poster presentation at the session "Literacy for Disaster Risk Reduction" at the 2023 Congress of the Japan Geoscience Union.
