Call for Participation
Evacuation Decision Making Survey
Georgetown University
Deadline: None set
Georgetown University researchers are asking emergency managers to complete an online questionnaire about evacuation decision making. Responses will be used for research sponsored by the National Science Foundation. The brief questionnaire is available online. The survey takes less than five minutes to complete and participants who share their e-mail address are entered into a drawing to win a Georgetown University sweatshirt. E-mails will be discarded after the drawing and are not connected to survey responses.
To learn more about the research project or ask questions, contact Professor Robin Dillon.
