Place attachment has gained considerable attention in disaster studies, though there is little consensus on how to conceptualize or measure this construct in post-disaster environments. Many of the place attachment scales used in disaster studies come from studies of recreational or high-amenity areas, and we do not know whether or to what extent these measures translate to disaster contexts. This paper addresses gaps in our understanding of place attachment in disaster contexts by reviewing the measurement of place attachment in the literature and by presenting findings from an empirical study of place attachment in a post-disaster environment, namely a survey study of survivors ( n = 675) of the 2013 Moore, Oklahoma, USA, tornado. Through this study, we identified four dimensions of place attachment: place identity, place dependence, neighborhood quality, and detachment. We also identified several factors that were related to dimensions of place attachment after the disaster, including social participation, exposure, and risk perception. We close by suggesting avenues for future research.

灾难研究中的地方依恋：测量和 2013 年摩尔龙卷风的案例

地方依恋在灾害研究中获得了相当大的关注，尽管在如何在灾后环境中概念化或衡量这种结构方面几乎没有达成共识。灾害研究中使用的许多地方依恋量表来自对休闲或高舒适区的研究，我们不知道这些措施是否或在多大程度上转化为灾害背景。本文通过回顾文献中对地方依恋的测量，并通过介绍灾后环境中地方依恋的实证研究结果，即幸存者调查研究（n = 675) 的 2013 年美国俄克拉荷马州摩尔龙卷风。通过这项研究，我们确定了地方依恋的四个维度：地方认同、地方依赖、邻里质量，和分离。我们还确定了几个与灾后地方依恋维度相关的因素，包括社会参与、暴露和风险感知。我们通过建议未来研究的途径来结束。
