The influence of demographic factors on the level of citizen awareness of police responsibilities in natural disasters
Uticaj demografskih faktora na nivo informisanosti građana o nadležnostima policije u prirodnim katastrofama
Apstrakt
The research aims to determine the nature of the relationship between demographic characteristics of citizens in the Republic of Serbia and their awareness of the police responsibilities in natural disasters caused by flooding. Taking into account all municipalities in Serbia in which there is a risk of flooding, nineteen were randomly selected. In selected municipalities 2,500 citizens were surveyed by using a multi-stage random sample in the areas and households that are more vulnerable in relation to the level of a hundred-year high water. The research results indicate that there is a statistically significant correlation between the demographic characteristics (gender, age, level of education and success in high school) and the awareness of citizens of the responsibilities of the police in natural disasters. Only 22% of respondents noted that they were informed on the police responsibilities in natural disasters. Awareness is the highest in respect of responsibilities of fire and r...escue units in natural disasters caused by flooding and the citizens aged 48 to 58 years are best informed on the police responsibilities. Citizens with university degrees showed a higher level of awareness about the police responsibilities compared to the citizens with completed secondary four-year school. Also, there is a statistically significant difference in the results for men and women in terms of awareness. The research results can be used to proactively improve the awareness of citizens, bearing in mind the security implications for policing itself in such situations. Social and scientific justification of the research stems from the necessity of a comprehensive analysis of police work in natural disasters and its assessment by the citizens.
Sprovedeno istraživanje imalo je za cilj da utvrdi prirodu povezanosti demografskih karakteristika građana u Republici Srbiji i njihove informisanosti o nadležnostima policije u prirodnim katastrofama izazvanim poplavama. Uzimajući u obzir sve opštine u Srbiji u kojima postoji rizik od poplava, metodom slučajnog uzorka odabrano je njih devetnaest. U odabranim opštinama primenom višeetapnog slučajnog uzorka anketirano je 2500 građana u onim delovima i domaćinstvima koji su ugroženi u odnosu na nivo stogodišnje visoke vode. Rezultati istraživanja ukazuju da postoji statistički značajna povezanost ispitivanih demografskih karakteristika (pol, godine starosti, nivo obrazovanja i uspeh u srednjoj školi) i informisanosti građana o nadležnostima policije u prirodnim katastrofama. Samo 22% ispitanika je istaklo da je informisano o nadležnostima policije u prirodnim katastrofama. Informisanost je najviša u vezi sa nadležnostima vatrogasno-spasilačkih jedinica u prirodnim katastrofama izazvanim ...poplavama, pri čemu su građani starosti od 48 do 58 godina u najvećoj meri informisani o nadležnostima policije. Građani koji imaju visoko obrazovanje zabeležili su viši nivo informisanosti o nadležnostima policije u odnosu na građane sa završenom srednjom/četvorogodišnjom školom. Takođe, utvrđena je statistički značajna razlika rezultata kod muškaraca i žena u pogledu informisanosti. Rezultati istraživanja se mogu iskoristiti za proaktivno poboljšanje informisanosti građana imajući u vidu bezbednosne implikacije po sam rad policije u takvim situacijama. Društvena i naučna opravdanost istraživanja proizlazi iz neophodnosti sveobuhvatne analize rada policije u prirodnim katastrofama i ocene građana o tom radu.
