Abstract

[The government’s emergency management capabilities emblematize its ability to govern and the state of harmonious development in society. In this study, we looked at the public’s evaluations of the government’s emergency management capabilities and the factors that affect such ratings, and found that the public’s ratings are the highest for the central government and lowest for the grassroots-level governments at their respective locales. Among government departments, their ratings for the fire safety departments are the highest and lowest for those responsible for food and drug safety. There are significant relationships between the public’s ratings for the central government’s management capabilities and: demographic factors, preferred media source, crisis awareness levels, and their ratings for provincial/municipal governments’ capabilities in their respective locales. The higher the public’s ratings for the emergency management capabilities of departments responsible for traffic management, public security, health care, and production safety, the higher their ratings for the emergency management capabilities of the provincial/municipal governments in their respective locales; the higher their ratings for departments responsible for earthquakes, fire safety, health care, and education, the higher their overall ratings for the emergency management capabilities of the central government.]
