This paper suggests the utility of the semantic differential technique as one method of measurement in investigations of disasters. The technique is versatile and efficient and can be used to assess psychological factors in behavior and perceptions of groups who experience disasters. A previous study in which this measurement was used to examine the aftereffects of a natural disaster is presented
