平成28年(2016年)熊本地震後における大学生の地震防災行動変容の状況と行動変容に影響を与えた要因を明らかにするために、山口県立大学の学生330名に対して選択式質問紙調査を実施した。有効回答数は173名(52.4％)であった。熊本地震をきっかけに地震災害時の備えや防災対策について行動した学生の人数は、以前から行動していた学生と同程度かまたは少なかった。さらに、未だに行動していない学生が約半数に上った。家族と離れて大学地区に居住していること、自身または家族・親戚等の被災経験があること、地震発生時に強い恐怖を感じたことは、行動変容を促した正の要因であった。一方で中国地方の出身であることは、行動変容を阻んだ要因であった。

In this study, behavior modifications of university students after the 2016 Kumamoto earthquakes regarding their awareness toward earthquake disaster prevention and possible contributory factors thereof were investigated. A multiple-choice questionnaire was conducted on 330 students of Yamaguchi Prefectural University, with valid responses of 173, 52.4% of them. The number of students who started to prepare for earthquake and take disaster-prevention countermeasures in the wake of the Kumamoto earthquakes was almost the same or less compared to the one of those who had been well prepared. The number of students who kept taking no preparatory action toward earthquake disaster prevention reached approximately half of the valid responses. The residential setting in which students live away from their families in the area neighboring the university, their own or their close family members' experiences of disasters, and strong sense of fear at the time of the earthquakes were regarded as possible positive factors for their behavior modifications. Meanwhile,the Chugoku region as a native place was a possible negative factor that restrained their behavior modifications to occur.
