TY - JOUR PY - 1986// TI - Predicting nuclear reactor emergency evacuation behavior JO - Energy A1 - Johnson, James H. SP - 861 EP - 868 VL - 11 IS - 9 N2 - Logistic regression analyses of survey data from a sample of households within the vicinity of the Shoreham Nuclear Power Station support nearly all of the hypothesized linkages in a theoretical model of nuclear reactor emergency evacuation decision-making. The results indicate that, if a TMI type accident were to occur at the Shoreham plant, nearly one-third of the Long Island population (~ 289,000 households) would evacuate voluntarily or spontaneously. Implications for future-oriented nuclear emergency evacuation planning are discussed.
