Abstract:
A common theme in the literature on evacuation compliance is the result of largely social psychological perceptions of risk formed prior to taking the protective action. From this perspective, evacuation is a function of warning recipients corning to define themselves as in danger and believing that fleeing the immediate environment wilt reduce that danger. This paper explores the social psychological and social structural processes that result in such perceptions. In particular, attention is given to identifying perceptions that motivate evacuation, factors that direct perceptual outcomes and the ways in which motivation and perception are translated into action.

Abstract:
One of the major misconceptions in contemporary society is the widespread belief that our food supply is unsafe. The public's perception of risk is quite different than scientific assessment of risk. While scientists see microbial contamination as the key issue (100 to 10,000X greater risk than from exposure to pesticide residues), consumers appear to be most concerned about the effects of synthetic pesticides and fertilizers in the food they buy. Consumers equate “synthetic” with harmful or bad and “natural” with safe or good, yet they ignore the fact that 99.9% of all pesticides humans are exposed to are naturally occurring. Americans eat approximately 1.5 g. of natural pesticides per person per day, or about 10,000 times more than synthetic pesticide residues. Although few plant toxins have been tested for carcinogenicity so far, of those tested about half are rodent carcinogens. Contrary to public perception, environmental pollution accounts for only 2% of all cancers. By contrast, smoking, diet and other personal lifestyle choices account for more than 75%.

Abstract:
Introduction: Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) is a well-known and widely used component of the healthcare system. Wet cupping therapy is one of the therapies that many people employ (hijamah). Wet cupping therapy (hijamah) is becoming increasingly popular and widely employed in today's society. The public's understanding and perception of cupping therapy, on the other hand, is unknown. This study describes public knowledge and perceptions of cupping therapy (hijamah) in Kalirandu.Method: In this study, using a cross-sectional approach. The sample was 62 people with purposive sampling stress, which is a sampling technique with specific considerations. This study used a questionnaire of knowledge and perceptions of the people.Results: The results of this study indicate that the level of public knowledge regarding cupping (hijamah) is low as many as 41 people (66.1%), and the level of knowledge is moderate as many as 21 people (33.9%). An overview of the medium category of community perceptions of cupping (hijamah) is 49 people (79.0%), for the good perception of 12 people (19.4%), and the last for a bad perception of 1 person (1.6 %).Conclusions: This study indicates that the knowledge and perception of the public about cupping therapy need to improve.

Abstract:
Almost 30 years ago, public relations scholars began to process the idea that the concept of culture was important to public relations practices. In particular, scholars questioned what influence culture might have on the communication process and relationship building between organizations and their stakeholders. Yet, today culture is still an understudied concept in the public relations literature. The purpose of this study is to analyze how of organizational culture, as defined by Sriramesh, J. E. Grunig, and Dozier (1996), is significant to the relationship outcomes in public relations. The theoretical framework for this study consists of organizational culture theory and organization-public relationship theory. A quantitative survey was used to measure an external public's perceptions of organizational culture and organizational-public relationships within an academic department. The research measures of authoritarian/participative culture to determine how it is related to the dimensions of organizational-public relationships, including control mutuality, trust, satisfaction, commitment, communal relationships, and exchange relationships. The results suggest how an organization can utilize perceptions of organizational culture and relationship management from external publics to develop and implement effective communication strategies.

Full text
Abstract:
Ocean acidification has been called the ‘evil twin’ of climate change and has become acknowledged as a serious risk to the marine environment. This thesis aims to explore public perceptions of ocean acidification as there is limited work on how people understand this emerging risk. It is important to engage the public because ocean acidification will contribute to how carbon emissions are addressed. The mental models approach was used to compare and examine public and expert perceptions of ocean acidification to help inform future risk communications. Many of the findings were similar to those of climate change; for example, it was not seen as a personal risk but something which would impact on the environment. Results showed that ocean acidification was unfamiliar to the public with low levels of knowledge and awareness found. People could identify possible impacts of ocean acidification but they were unsure about the main cause, stating that pollution from chemicals and industrial waste was one of the main causes. Risk perceptions of ocean acidification were influenced by factors other than knowledge about the risk such as affect, place attachment and environmental identity. A key finding of this thesis was that people were concerned about ocean acidification despite this being an unfamiliar risk issue, perceiving it as a highly negative risk. This exploratory thesis will help develop more effective risk communications around ocean acidification with these findings in mind. Future work should test ocean acidification frames; whether or not it should be framed as part of climate change. The mental models approach allowed initial understandings of this unfamiliar risk to be explored using mixed methods and helped examine how ocean acidification was conceptualised through social representations theory. Public response to ocean acidification may mean that there would be greater support for policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions.

Abstract:
Child sexual abuse is a profoundly challenging phenomenon that has a range of detrimental impacts on victims, their families, friends, and the community. In Australia, the sexual abuse of children is a pervasive social problem, public health concern, and egregious criminal offence. High prevalence rates and the numerous adverse effects associated with child sexual abuse makes the prevention of these offences a critical priority. Existing research has shown public perceptions and knowledge regarding child sex offenders and paedophilia to be lacking and inaccurate which can lead to punitive attitudes and little support for rehabilitative efforts (Jahnke, 2018; King, 2019). The intense societal stigma of paedophilia can hinder potential perpetrators from accessing treatment and support to prevent offending behaviour, consequently increasing the risk of child sexual abuse (Levenson, 2017). Understanding public perceptions regarding child sex offenders is important for determining effective ways to implement evidence-based offender policy that has the support of the community (Knack et al., 2019; McCartan & Kemshall, 2015). Public opinions can impact public policy through pressure placed on politicians by their electorates to “do something” to keep the community safe from sexual offenders. Such demands by the public are commonly driven by anger and fear, rather than logic and an accurate understanding of child sexual abuse prevention (Bartels et al., 2020; McCartan et al., 2014). Given that public perceptions can be highly influential in the formation and implementation of public policy, it is important to understand the dynamics of perceptions regarding child sex offenders and the characteristics that underlie these beliefs (Schiavone & Jeglic, 2009). The present study explored public perceptions of child sex offenders in an Australian population sample to investigate whether public perceptions endorse or reject common myths and stereotypes found within the empirical literature, and the extent to which perceptions were influenced by sociodemographic characteristics. A nationwide sample of the Australian public (N = 408) was recruited through social media using convenience and snowball sampling. Participants completed an anonymous online survey that collected sociodemographic characteristics followed by two parametric scales to assess aspects of their perceptions and knowledge regarding child sex offenders and paedophilia. The findings revealed that perceptions of child sex offenders maintained by the Australian public are negative and stereotype-driven, and levels of knowledge regarding child sex offenders and paedophilia are distinctly inaccurate. However, it was also found that respondents with higher levels of education and those who reported having a close relationship with someone who has perpetrated a sexual offence against a child maintained less punitive perceptions. These findings have ascertained that better resources and interventions are required for public education regarding child sex offenders to address the knowledge deficits and negative perceptions. Effectively changing negative public perceptions and improving the accuracy of knowledge can potentially reduce social stigma that discourages at-risk individuals from seeking support to refrain from offending, result in more ethical treatment of adjudicated child sex offenders, thus, improving rehabilitation and reintegration efforts, and contribute to evidence-based strategies for the prevention of child sexual abuse.

Rose, Jonathan. "Citizens' perceptions of standards in public life." Thesis, University of Nottingham, 2012. http://eprints.nottingham.ac.uk/12575/.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis analyses citizens' perceptions of standards in public life. It attempts to understand whether perceptions such as these are important substantively for questions of citizen disaffection, and begins the task of analyzing how citizens come to hold the perceptions they do. The thesis presents a systematic investigation into this topic, placing perceived standards in the context of a discussion about citizen disaffection and the perceived legitimacy of political systems. As they are conceived of in this thesis, 'standards in public life' can usefully be thought of as the 'rules of the game' or the 'spirit of public service'. Standards in public life are less a set of formal, prescriptive rules, more an exhortation to the appropriate exercise of public office. Such a focus upon the 'rules of the game' results in the primary concern of this thesis being about the process of governing, as opposed to the outcomes governors can produce. The thesis investigates perceptions of standards in two parts. Part 1 considers broad questions of the conceptualisation, measurement and structure of citizen beliefs about government in general, and perceptions of standards in particular. The findings of Part 1 therefore provide a base upon which future analyses can be built. Part 2 investigates the causes of perceptions of standards, focusing upon three aspects of political ‘conditions’: partisan co-alignment, the ‘scandal’ concerning Derek Conway’s use of parliamentary expenses to employ his son to do essentially no work, and the MPs’ expenses scandal. The analyses in this thesis are primarily quantitative, and investigate a series of four datasets, which contain data collected in the United Kingdom between 2003 and 2011.

Abstract:
African American males are more likely than any of race of males to report unreasonable and unnecessary negative experiences with law enforcement officers. They may describe these experiences as unjustified due to the level of force used. In some cases, excessive force used by police has resulted in the death of African American males. Due to unresolved issues between African American males and police officers dating back to the slavery era, there is a deep historical division between these groups. Among African American males, the percentage of individuals who express distrust toward police officers tends to be higher than in any other group. The purpose of this research study was to explore African American males' perceptions of police officers in order to understand this distrust. This study involved 16 males residing in a large southern city who were selected to share their experiences with and perceptions of police officers. Social relationship theory as defined by Weber was used as the theoretical framework for this study. Participants were selected via snowball sampling to answer questions during semistructured interviews. The data were analyzed and coded using modified van Kaam analysis. The findings were that African American males distrust the police due to their personal experiences during police encounters and police officers' biases toward them. The findings of this study may help leaders, policymakers, administrative assistants, and law enforcement agencies within the study city understand how to implement positive social change that could assist law enforcements officers and African American males with developing a positive relationship.

Abstract:
Organizations are introducing biometric devices into various sections of the economy for various reasons. What began as a security feature for a limited number of government organizations has been adapted to such diverse uses as paying for school children’s lunches to tracking employees’ work attendance. From an organizational perspective, justifications for use of biometric devices are plentiful. However, the public’s perception of these devices may be quite different. These perceptions in turn will influence public willingness to accept and use biometric devices. Although employee use of biometric devices can be mandated, a more productive alternative might be to understand their perceptions and address those specifically through education and information. This paper describes common types of biometrics, reviews their current use in organizations, presents findings of a recent survey of public perceptions to determine the areas requiring the most education, and concludes with suggestions for providing this education.

Full text
Abstract:
Household air pollution (HAP) is linked to 4 million deaths worldwide, with 85% occurring in Low-middle income countries. HAP predominantly affects women as they tend to do the household daily chores. It is therefore important to understand women’s perceptions and wants for this topic. This was a joint project with 15 qualitative semi structured interviews conducted by each researcher. The research took place during May and June 2016 in Kavresthali, a village in Kathmandu district, interviewing married women over the age of 25. Data was analysed using thematic analysis. Burning wood on a traditional cook stove was identified as the most common cause of HAP. The effects of HAP most commonly affected women, with eye and respiratory problems the most commonly associated symptom. Cost, habit and taste were barriers identified preventing the switch to cleaner fuel types and stoves. Lack of information and cheaper gas were key improvements participants wanted to see. The findings in this study were similar to those identified in the literature based in other LMIC. Despite numerous common themes, unique challenges were identified in Nepal. Geographical and political issues were exclusive to Nepal. Four SMART recommendations are made which are specific to the study area: • Subsidised cleaner fuel • Education and advice to empower local women • Promotion of Improved cook stoves • Further research focusing on housing structure and ventilation Key Words Household Air pollution, Nepal

Abstract:
An increase in a number of migrants intensifies the need for professional psychological support and counseling for the latter in order to facilitate their social-psychological adaptation. In order to organise the psychotherapeutic process effectively and provide quality services, it is necessary to pay special attention to clients’ expectations and perceptions of psychological help. Unfortunately, this issue is currently underrepresented in domestic psychological research. The success of the psychologist’s work largely depends on a clear understanding of the ethnicity, the uniqueness of each ethnic group and the appropriately chosen methods. This paper presents the results of a survey of counselling psychologists with experience of working with migrants from post Soviet countries as well as the results of a comparative analysis of the perceptions of the psychologist’s work with representatives of the dominant ethnic group and migrants. The study objective: explore perceptions of the work of a counselling psychologist among migrants and members of the dominant ethnic group. Respondents’ answers were processed using expert assessments. The study was participated by three groups: 20 psychologists (of the dominant ethnic group); 20 migrants, and 20 citizens of the Russian Federation without psychological education. The dominant attitude in the minds of many respondents is that psychotherapy is useless, ‘a person should cope on their own, telling a psychologist about their problems is a sign of weakness’. At the same time, most of the interviewees note that they (their families) have psychological problems, however, they are not prepared to work on solving them. It is worth highlighting the particular importance of psychological education and public enlightenment in order to develop a more adequate image of the psychologist and a clear understanding of the specifics of psychological counselling.

Abstract:
This deliverable synthesizes the results on public perceptions of marine CDR methods from the first two years of OceanNETs. The purpose is to inform the other work packages in OceanNETs and stakeholders about our results in a timely and brief manner about the ways members of the public view marine CDR specifically but also in the broader context of net-zero targets and climate policy. The deliverable summarises results of two studies: (1) focus groups held in Germany and Norway that covered ocean fertilization, ocean alkalinity enhancement, artificial upwelling and blue carbon management and (2) a deliberative survey in Norway that covered ocean alkalinity enhancement, macroalgae farming with BECCS or biomass sinking and land-based BECCS and enhanced weathering as terrestrial approaches for comparison. Participants in both studies emphasise the importance of reducing emissions and changing consumptions patterns. They hardly discuss the need to remove CO2 from the atmosphere to reach the Paris climate goal and the concept of negative emissions seems difficult for them to engage with. Among the methods, participants prefer ecosystem-based approaches like mangrove or seagrass restoration over other methods like alkalinity enhancement or ocean fertilization. Participants are concerned about the actual feasibility of deployment at a relevant removal scale and for a longer period. Connected to this are concerns about the controllability of the deployment and the methods’ impact, like difficulties to control negative environmental effects from biomass sinking at the seafloor. They also question the buildup of additional infrastructure or additional interventions into nature on top of already existing human interference. The opportunity to deliberate the methods increases participants’ certainty about their assessment but only slightly changes the direction of the assessment.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: This scoping review aims to systematize the scientific knowledge about the relationship between public opinion concerning the street-level bureaucrats’ actions and their perceptions about Welfare Deservingness and social protection measures implemented within the framework of the current Welfare State. In a more concrete way, we intend to demonstrate the following assumptions: (a) if there is a connection between the perception of Welfare Deservingness and the public support given to social policies; (b) if there are more valued dimensions of Welfare Deservingness in public opinion; and (c) if the street-level bureaucrats' perceptions of Welfare Deservingness will have an impact on the implementation of public policies.
