This project uses system dynamics and agent based modeling to understand how the public responds to different types of disasters, and how these reactions lead to social and economic ripple effects. Data from hypothetical scenarios as well as the longitudinal tracking of response to actual events are used to estimate response functions and explore emergent behavior. In addition, a field experiment is proposed in which the efficacy of different risk communication strategies are tested. The end goal is to understand how people respond to a wide array of hazards, and to advise risk managers on how they might anticipate and respond to such public reaction
