Disasters and emergencies of various origin, frequency, and intensity pose a threat to human life and a challenge to both civilians and emergency professionals. While much data has been collected regarding the preparation and response to such events, false beliefs about human behavior during disasters pervade society. Furthermore, published research concerning emergency behavior and disaster myths has not been conducted in the United States for decades. A United States community sample of study participants responded to questionnaires about these issues. Their preparation for natural and man-made catastrophic events, their beliefs in disaster myths, and what behavior they predict they might engage? 383 participants that broadly represented the United States demographically responded to the study's four surveys: a demographics questionnaire (N = 383), an emergency preparedness questionnaire used by FEMA (N = 330), a version of a disaster myths questionnaire created by Dr. John Drury and colleagues from the University of Sussex (N = 280), and a questionnaire about self-predicted behavior created by this researcher including three disaster vignettes (natural disaster, manmade disaster, and terrorist attack) (N = 250). Results indicate about 1/3 of individuals report being sufficiently prepared for an emergency and over 70% positively identify with disaster myths. For self-prediction, more than 90% of respondents predicted preparatory behavior and more than 80% predicted prosocial behavior. Notably, at least 14% of respondents predicted antisocial behavior. Variables such as race/ethnicity, income, and gender were related to antisocial behavior. Religious identification predicted prosocial behavior and decreased disaster myth belief, and a past history of emergency training was correlated with greater general preparedness. These findings suggest a population found in the United States that is mostly unprepared for emergencies, believes in disaster myths, and depending on demographic background may be more or less likely to engage in prosocial or antisocial behavior following a disaster. Future research should examine disaster denial, interactional effects, and belief in disaster myths.
