Models 1 5 regressed the presence of the five types of disaster preparedness behaviors in households against their potential influencing factors, whereas Model 6 regressed the total number of farming households' adopted disaster preparedness behaviors against its potential influencing factors.
Econometric regression models were constructed to explore the impacts of farming households' risk perception and sense of place on their preparedness for disasters (whether the households adopted any of the five types of disaster preparedness behaviors, and the total number of behaviors adopted).
