-- 1.
INTRODUCTION Human response to emergencies has been a topic of investigation by social scientists for over three decades.
This research history has covered many aspects of human behavior; and an important component of this work has been to investigate the behavior of people with roles of responsibility in emergency response, as well as the behavior of etaergency organizations.
Early discoveries informed subsequent investigations, and both informed emergency planning efforts in the nation.
The research record has grown over time.
Although additional research will continue, the record is clear with respect to the response of emergency organizations and emergency workers in times of emergency.
I am confident that the principles of emergency organization and emergency work response discussed below -- well-established through decades of research and investigation -- would be applicable in the event of an emergency at a nuclear power plant such as the Seabrook Station.
Two issues related to emergency organizations and workers seem particularly important to discuss in relation to the contentions raised regarding Seabrook.
These are, first, the concern over whether or not emergency workers like fire and police would do their emergency jobs versus something else were an emergency to occur; and, second, the o
~
degree to which the speculation or1 verbal. intentions of-emergency workers would determine actual behavior in a real future emergency.
12.
EMERGENCY ROLE ABANDONMENT BY WORKERS l
The notion of " role conflict" is a concept in the social sciences based on the following ideas.
Individuals in society play many different roles, and each role has certain rights and obligations in particular social relationships.
Because each person plays many different roles, the rights and obligations of one role may be consistent'with those of another role, or irrelevant to <ne in " conflict" with another role.
The concept of role " conflict" is generally used uncritically, as an either/or matter in which a person is forced to choose between two or more roles (cf. Lewis 1
j Killian. 1952. "The Significance of Multigroup Membership in Disaster" American Journal of Sociology January:309-314).
" Conflict" implies equally weighted contradictory j
alternatives, requiring a person to choose one role to play while abandoning another.
This condition is rarely,,1 f ever, found in actual social life.
A more accurate term is role " strain," which denotes-the difficulty felt by an
)
individual in fulfilling different role obligations at the i
same time.
Role " strain" is preferable because it describes more accurately the actual conditions that people experience l
in all of social life, not just'those of emergencies.
Role l
j ;
i
'O o
" strain" is something with which people cope in most social situations and is a permanent feature of social life.
It is important to distinguish between role strain, which is a mental state (a feeling of concern and unease),
and role abandonment, which is a type of behavior.
- Thus, while it is to be expected that emergency workers would experience some role strain during an emergency at Seabrook, this does not mean that they would abandon their emergency roles because of it.
Research conducted on the actual behavior of people with defined organizational responsibilities in emergencies has established that emergency workers who have a clear idea of their emergency roles do their emergency jobs.
This i
research record stretches back over the last three decades and is summarized in an article by Dennis S. Mileti, 1984.
" Role Conflict and Abandonment in Emergency Workers" Emergency Management Review 2.1:20-22.
The absence of evidence of persons abandoning emergency i
roles over a wide range of emergency events in the past illustrates that there are certain structural changes in the community during emergencies that reduce role strain.
Role obligations are based on values and, during non-emergency
" normal" times, people expend effort on achieving many different values, some potentially contradictory.
An emergency changes this process dramatically.
Some values become clearly more important than others, and people,
l 4
.w,
---v-y-.-,-
,.._r
b experiencing the emergency generally agree on the few that take precedence over all others.
This phenomenon is the development of what has been called the " emergency consensus."
In this consensus, people become altruistic, and protection of the community becomes the highest priority.
Other values become drastically less important.'
This temporary shift in values simplifies the role obligations of people, and greatly reduces the potential for role strain.
People are " released" to concentrate on the critical tasks of the emergency.
The value priorities in an emergency thus simplify, rather than aggravate, role strain for community members.
Those with identified emergency roles are therefore able to fulfill them, rather than ignore the emergency in order to tend to the obligations of other roles.
People who know in advance of an emergency that they have emergency roles to play (should one ever occur) are able to make informal family' contingency plans in advance of the emergency.
For example, families can make plans in
)
advance of an emergency to ensure that -- in an emergency --
the non-emergency-worker spouse (or other appropirate person) will take the appropriate measures to protect the family unit in the absence of the emergency worker.
Similar pre-emergency plans can be made to provide for the continuation throughout an emergency of child care arrangements in place at the time any emergency occurs.
i l
'b Such pre-emergency planning can also provide for the assumption by relatives, friends or neighbors of other usual responsibilities of the emergency worker.
Indeed, in past emergencies, even in the absence of such contingency plans, the role obligations of emergency workers toward intimates (including family) have generally been shifted and assumed by other non-emergency-worker members of the intimate group, thereby freeing the emergency worker to fulfill assigned emergency roles.
As discussed above, role strain in emergency workers during emergencies between emergency role obligations and family (or intimate group) obligations is not an either/or situation.
That is, emergency workers are not required to choose between mutually exclusive roles.
Role strain between family and organizational responsibilities would be a mental process in an emergency; it would not result in role abandonment or interfere with the ability of emergency organizations to do their emergency work.
Emergency workers would need to feel assured that their families can tend to their own safety.
However, historically, in past-emergencies, emergency workers have performed their emergency roles at the same time they have sought assurance of the safety of their families through ad hoc, informal channels.
There is little difference between full-time emergency workers and part-time or volunteer emergency workers, for l
s
~, b example volunteer fire departments, on this-issue.
The reason is that the number of hours typically worked and the rate of pay, if any, are not relevant factors in determining the performance of emergency roles by emergency workers.
The only relevant difference between classes of i
emergency workers is whether-they are at work or somewhere l
else, for example at home, when emergency mobilization j
begins.
In this way, volunteer emergency workers are different from other kinds of emergency workers only because j
they are more likely to not be at work when the emergency.
]
begins.
4 Emergency workers who are at home when an emergency 4
begins will likely continue to play the roles they are 4
~
performing at the time (for example,. father, husband, wife, mother, and so on) for a brief period of time.
These' roles i
are services as decisions are made that enable them to feel I
free about separating family members so that emergency roles can be performed.
What might seem to be a potential for delay in reporting for duty is not, in operation, a real l
problem because: (a) most emergencies do not begin with the 1
need for immediate and dramatic actions like evacuation; 4
i emergency organizations can be mobilized in stages while families complete decision-making, with other family members 4
or intimates assuming the potential family role obligations of the emergency worker who has reported for work; (b) most j
families include at least one other member who is competent t
i 4
,n,,a.-.,
,., - - -,. _,,.,,,..,. ~. -
.----,.,..v_.,.
(i.e., able to drive, listen to emergency information, and make decisions) and able to assume the potential family role responsibilities of the absent emergency worker; and (c) workers are typically anxious to resolve other responsibilities and report to their emergency work stations.
Workers away from home when an emergency begins typically improvise ways to assure themselves of the safety of intimates while tending to their emergency job duties at the same time.
Finally, emergency workers fulfill their role obligations in emergencies because of the cohesiveness of the work group.
People with knowledge of their emergency roles do not wish to let their co-workers down.
In emergencies, the need to have emergency work performed is obvious, and the emergency roles take on added importance.
The sense of obligation to perform that role is strengthened, and the sense of obligation to the community as a whole is strengthened.
And, since part of the traditional image of spouse and parent includes the obligation to perform adequately the necessary work-related emergency roles, the traditional role reinforces (rather than conflicts with) the emergency roles of the emergency worker.
The potential of role strain for reducing the effectiveness of emergency response is minimized by the organizational and occupational assignment of emergency
-9
t 1
responsibility.
Assigning clear responsibility creates clear direction for behavior and ensures that the work of-emergency response organizations is fulfilled.
- Further, assigning clear responsibility makes it clear to emergency workers that they have responsibilities to their co-workers.
Failing to report for work would increase the burden on others.
In addition, advance knowledge of one's emergency role allows the emergency worker to arrange to avoid role
" conflict" and indeed to fill the role of family member more effectively than if he or she were not an emergency worker.
The worker can preplan for family safety in an emergency.
Also, because of organizational ties, the emergency worker 1
is more likely to receive information about the nature of the emergency and the nature of-the risk, which allows the J
j worker to fulfill family obligations more effectively.
Emergency worker performance levels are ensured by training.
Training provides the context for those i
individuals to preplan activities that allow them to implement their emergency roles, such as providing back-up 4
j and supplementary options for continuing family responsibility.
In particular:
)
(1)
Training gives the emergency worker a clear understanding of what is expected of him or her --
of what his or her emergency role is.
1 1
(2)
Training makes the worker aware of the advantages i
of making family contingency plans in advance of an emergency.
(3)
Training makes the worker aware that the community l
1 j,

,%--p
and the emergency worker's co-workers depend on him 4
or her.
(4)
Training informs the worker about the nature of the radiation risk and about the procedures to be used in dealing with that risk, such as dosimetry and radioprotective drugs.
In sum, emergency workers who know of their emergency roles in advance of an emergency perform their emergency functions in the event of an emergency.
I do not know of even a single case in the history of emergencies in this nation where the ability of an emergency response organization to function was impaired by a failure of personnel to report for duty.
There are, however, many cases where people who were not advised of their roles in advance of an emergency have carried out other duties before volunteering for emergency work.
This simply underscores
{
the importance of advising emergency workers of their roles in advance of an emergency.
In conclusion, a large body of historical evidence shows that the functioning of emergency organizations is not hampered by failure of emergency workers to perform their jobs.
In spite of role " strain," such workers perform effectively.
Moreover, training for emergency work can reduce role strain and enhance the effective performance of emergency workers.
While role abandonment may be theoretically possible, it is certainly extremely rare, and consequently it does not reduce organizational effectiveness.
Indeed, the typical problem in emergencies l.
n

is not that too few workers report for duty, but rather that too many persons volunteer.
(In some cases -- most notably those involving response organizations which do not require multiple shifts -- the management of excess personnel has had to be addressed.)

WORKER INTENTIONS VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR I have no doubt that emergency workers could be found who might profess that they would likely be more concerned about other roles (for example, family member) in a future emergency than they would their work role; and that they.
might envision evacuating with their family before reporting for emergency work.
In the prior section of this affidavit, I explained why such role abandonment does not occur in actual emergencies.
In this section, I will explain why such speculation about future behavior bears little weight.
Social scientists have long questioned the validity of inferring behavior in the future from motions about how people think they would behave in a future circumstance, for example, in an emergency.
Since the time the first work was done on how well behavioral intentions and actual behavior related to one another (see, R.T. LaPierre, " Attitudes Versus Actions,"
Social Forces 13:230-237, 1934), the great majority of investigators who have looked at the question have concluded that there is only a weak relationship, if any, between how j
people think they might behave and actual human behavior (see, A.W. Wicker, " Attitudes versus Actions: The Relationship to Attitude Objects," Journal of Social Issues 25:44-78, 1969).
A few scholars recently have suggested that the failure of this research to illustrate that f
anticipated behavior or attitudes and behavior covary is not because there is not a theoretical relationship between the two, but rather because researchers have measured the attitudes and the behavior which they seek to compare in an i
inappropriate way.
(See C.A.
Kiesler and P. Munson,
" Attitudes and Opinions," Annual Review of Psychology 26:415-456, 1975; R.C. Dillehay, "On the Irrelevance of the Classical Negative Evidence Concerning the Effect of Attitudes on Behavior."
American Psychologist-28:887-891, f
1973; C.A.
- Kiesler, B. Collins and N. Miller, Attitude Change: A Critical Analysis of Theoretical Approaches, New
/
York: Wiley, 1969).
These more recent papers suggest that there is a relationship between attitudes and behavior, but that it does not appear in the studies because researchers t
have not done quality research and have not measured reliability, category width, change in attitude object, item difficulty, factor structure of attitude and behavioral syndromes, the effect of non-attitudinal contributions to f
answers to questions about attitudes, and so on.
But while most social scientists are of the opinion that attitudes (or intentions to behave) do play some sort of '
l
_~
-.~
role in shaping behavior because it makes " theoretical" sense, they do not think that attitudes and behavior covary, based upon 50 years of empirical evidence to the contrary.
The minority of scholars who profess that attitudes.and behavior would eventually be shown to empirically covary if only researchers would stop doing bad research, still-await empirical proof of their belief.
Interestingly, even these scholars begin with the admission that "a host of 'other i
factors' can influence a person's behavior to make it i
inconsistent with a reported attitude" (see, M. Rokeah and P. Kliejunas, " Behavior as a Function of Attitude Toward J
Object and Object Toward Attitude," Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 1972; A.W. Wicker,."An Examination of 1
the 'Other Variables' Explanation of Attitude-Behavior Inconsistency," Journal of Personality and Social l
Psychology, 19:18-30, 1971).
They claim that one might be able to increase the chances that an attitude will J
correspond in some empirical way to behavior if, perhaps, f
verbal measures were taken that tried to take these other factors into account.
For example, instead of asking "Do 4,
l you like pretzels?" and correlating (to no' empirical avail) j the answers to pretzel purchasing, one should ask "Do you l
pian on buying pretzels?" and correlate answers with actual i
I pretzel purchasing behavior.
The latter approach, it is claimed, allows the respondent to be able to "take the other non-attitudinal things into account" when coming up with the 1 !
. - +
r
- - --, ~,. ~..,..
-,---,,--,-,-n..
-,.-n.
rv e--
answer.
Since "other factors" beyond attitudes' affect behavior, this scheme would enable the researcher to 1
l measure,-in one simple question, all those "other factors" and the attitude at once.
Some who advocate this method of "let the respondent do the measuring of sets of factors" hope that this method might show covariation of answers to questions with actual real-world behavior.
This method, and several varieties of it, goes by many names.
One name is " intentions-to-behave" (see, M.
Fishbein.
and I. Ajzen, Belief, Attitude and Behavior.
- Reading, 4
Mass.:
Addision-Wesley, 1975).
The " behavioral intentions" method of attempting to find attiudinal/behavorial covariation is straightforward in logic:
"Ask someone if they would do something, and if they do not change'their mind, then you will find that they may do what they said they would do."
The method may work, but only for familiar i
behaviors (like buying peanut butter).
Underlying the l
method is the supposition that the respondent can take all l
"other factors" into account when coming up with a guessed-at future behavior.
When the respondent does not know what the "other factors" are that he might take into account, the result is a wrong guess -- the result that has been found in studies over the last 50 years -- and the answers to questions do not correspond to actual behavior.
Another set of researchers-(M. Snyder and W.B.
Swann,.
"When Actions Reflect Attitudes:
The Politics of Impression i -.. -
Management," Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 1976) go one step further than Fishbein and Ajzen.
They suggest -- perhaps because the respondent may not know all the "other factors" to consider -- that the researcher provide the respondent the context in which to provide an answer, that is, tell the respondent what are all the "other factors."
Yet another pair of researchers (see, J.M.
Piccolo and J. Louvier, "Information Integration Theory Applied to Real-World Choice Behavior," Great Plains-Rocky Mountain Geographical Journal 6:49-63, 1977) go even further and suggest that respondents should be asked _to engage in information-integration tasks that more closely resemble the real world.
None of these minority of scholars claims that attitudes (regardless of what label -- including behavorial intentions -- for them is currently being used) and behavior covary.
These minority of scholars who cling to the unproven hope that answers to questions will someday covary with actual behavior only do so by thinking that one can provide a way to allow a respondent to take all "other factors" into account before he guesses at his future behavior.
"Other factors" can be taken into account by respondents on familiar behaviors for which the respondent knows what are all the other factors.
This is why voting polls sometimes are used to accurately predict future behavior:
