Abstract This study set out to assess the ability of year nine students to identify and classify the most likely natural and mixed risks, both on a national scale and within the Metropolitan Area of Porto (AMP). We also sought to assess the respective spatial perception of different risks at regional level. For this purpose, a questionnaire was applied and the results show that the students classified the risk of forest fire as the most likely to occur, both nationwide and in all AMP municipalities, with a rating ranging from high to moderate, respectively. In spatial terms, they clearly define the areas most vulnerable to each of the listed risks, identifying forest fires and heat waves as most likely to occur, and the northern and coastal regions of Portugal where the greatest number of risks are concentrated.

地理学生对葡萄牙风险空间感知的探索

摘要 本研究旨在评估九年级学生在全国范围内和波尔图都市区 (AMP) 内识别和分类最有可能的自然风险和混合风险的能力。我们还试图评估区域层面不同风险的各自空间感知。为此，我们进行了问卷调查，结果显示学生将森林火灾风险归类为最有可能发生的风险，无论是在全国还是在所有 AMP 城市，等级分别从高到中等。在空间方面，他们明确界定了最容易受到所列风险影响的区域，确定最有可能发生森林火灾和热浪，以及风险最集中的葡萄牙北部和沿海地区。
