Forschungsgebiete

    Ich bin an dem Zusammenspiel von Risikowahrnehmung, Wissen, Erfahrung und Vorsorge im Zusammenhang von Notsituationen und Katastrophen interessiert. Hierbei geht es zum einen um die Untersuchung des Einflusses von Erfahrung mit einer Notsituation auf die zukünftige Risikowahrnehmung, sowie um die Untersuchung der gegenseitigen Beeinflussung von Vorbereitung und Risikowahrnehmung. Darüber hinaus bin ich an den präventiven Möglichkeiten der Integration von sozialen Medien im Notfallmanagement interessiert.
