This project submitted under the Small Grants for Exploratory Research (SGER) program investigates cooperation among evacuees in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. In this regard the project offers the opportunity to study the levels of cooperation and conflict among strangers who have been dislocated due to the emergency. It also asks about the risk orientation of those who have been dislocated and the levels of trust that individuals have for others within their group and for agencies working with them. Finally, project assesses the effect of different sized evacuation centers on levels of in-group cooperation and trust and the way in which attitudes and behaviors change over time.The research is conducted at the Behavioral Research Laboratory located at Rice University in Houston, Texas. Houston currently is housing the largest population of evacuees from New Orleans and other places in the Gulf Coast. The investigator runs three different cross sections of evacuees: one beginning on September 9th and extending for one week; a second one month later; and, the final cross section will occur in two to three months, depending on the time table for moving evacuees out of Houston. Evacuees will be transported to the Behavioral Research Laboratory at Rice and will participate in studies assessing cooperation and attitude development and change.With respect to the second review criterion of the National Science Foundation, broader applicability to societal needs, the research gathers fundamental data on how opinion changes over time on issues under debate in Washington in tandem with discussions of disaster relief and mitigation. This study will be of value to scholars interested in the topic and also to decision-makers trying to differentiate among threats to social dislocation and the American culture.

该项目是根据探索性研究小额赠款 (SGER) 计划提交的，旨在调查卡特里娜飓风过后撤离人员之间的合作。 在这方面，该项目提供了研究因紧急情况而流离失所的陌生人之间的合作和冲突程度的机会。 它还询问了那些被解雇的人的风险取向，以及个人对其群体内其他人以及与他们合作的机构的信任程度。 最后，项目评估了不同规模的疏散中心对群体内合作和信任水平的影响，以及态度和行为随时间变化的方式。这项研究是在德克萨斯州休斯顿莱斯大学的行为研究实验室进行的。 休斯顿目前收容着来自新奥尔良和墨西哥湾沿岸其他地区最多的撤离人员。 调查员对撤离人员进行了三组不同的调查：一组从 9 月 9 日开始，持续一周；另一组从 9 月 9 日开始，持续一周；另一组从 9 月 9 日开始，持续一周。一个月后第二次；并且，最终的横截面将在两到三个月内进行，具体取决于将撤离人员撤离休斯顿的时间表。 撤离人员将被送往莱斯大学行为研究实验室，并参与评估合作以及态度发展和改变的研究。关于国家科学基金会的第二个审查标准，即更广泛地适用于社会需求，该研究收集了关于如何随着时间的推移，对华盛顿辩论的问题以及救灾和减灾讨论的看法会发生变化。 这项研究对于对该主题感兴趣的学者以及试图区分社会混乱和美国文化的威胁的决策者来说都是有价值的。
