From recovery to preparedness
Multi-phase research is needed to understand how disaster-impacted residents maintain and adapt individual disaster communication (IDC; Spialek & Houston, 2018; Spialek et al., 2021). Residents engage in IDC when they search for, create, or share interpersonal or social media messages intended to help themselves and other individuals cope across disaster phases. This study examined how recovery-focused IDC and anticipatory resilience capacity exp…
Examining the role of perceived discrimination stress, disaster communication, and community resilience perceptions in Hurricane Harvey stress reactions among Latinos in Texas
The relationship between the disaster communication action context and citizen intent to shape climate-related disaster policy across California wildfire seasons
The current study examined the psychological and social factors that motivate individuals to share and seek wildfire preparedness and resilience-building messages within disaster communication ecologies. California residents who either lived in counties that (a) experienced the 2018 Mendocino Complex or Camp Fires or (b) bordered active wildfire zones were surveyed. Hierarchical regression and serial mediation analysis revealed that descriptive s…

Hurricane Harvey's Aftermath
Early June begins the Southern Hemisphere hurricane season. Stretching into November, it can often be a time of weary waiting and cautious optimism for coastal residents. Clear skies and calm seas can quickly give way to disaster. On August 27, 2017, a Category 4 hurricane (Harvey), targeting the Texas Gulf Coast and packing winds of over 130 miles per hour, wreaked havoc and created a path of destruction with bands of rain that seemingly went on…
Food Insecurity in the Post-Hurricane Harvey Setting
Food insecurity is of heightened concern during and after natural disasters; higher prevalence is typically reported in post-disaster settings. The current study examines food insecurity prevalence and specific risk/resource variables that may act as barriers or advantages in accessing food in such a setting. Using a modified quota sample ( n = 316), Hurricane Harvey survivors participated in face-to-face interviews and/or online surveys that ass…
Individual disaster communication in the Latinx community after Hurricane Harvey
This study examined how socio-cultural factors explain the relationship between hurricane exposure and frequency of individual disaster communication among Latinx individuals in Texas communities impacted by Hurricane Harvey. Participants included 397 Latinx residents in nine Texas counties that were most impacted by Hurricane Harvey. Through structural equation modeling, results indicated that perceived discrimination stress mediates the relatio…
The Centrality of Communication and Media in Fostering Community Resilience
A community is resilient if it is able to "bounce forward" after an adverse event. Community resilience is generally considered a process that is indicated by community adaptation following a disaster or crisis. In this article, we employ media and communication perspectives (communication ecology, public relations, and strategic communication) to review the community resilience literature and propose a revised community resilience model. Our pro…
