本研究在福島核災之後，檢視民眾對核能議題之風險感知與態度。 於核災爆發後一周之內，進行全國1,093 位民眾的電話調查。結果顯 示，政治信任程度愈低，愈是認為核能風險重要性高；民眾對政府的 信任程度愈高，則愈支持核能。在傳播層面上，對核災的電視新聞愈 注意，則愈覺得風險重要性高，也愈反對核能。客觀知識程度較高者， 愈支持核能，也較接受核能風險。在性別差異上，男性比起女性較能 接受核能風險。在政黨差異上，泛藍較泛綠支持核能。

This study explored how people in Taiwan perceived the risk of nuclear power during the Fukushima disaster in March 2011. An island-wide telephone survey of 1,093 residents in Taiwan was conducted within one week after the disaster occurred. The results showed that people’s perception of the risk was primarily determined by their political trust. People who had lower political trust were likely to be more concerned, whereas those who trusted the government more tended to support nuclear energy. Attention to television news was positively correlated with risk perception; those who paid more attention to television news were likely to oppose nuclear energy. Additionally, people with more objective knowledge about nuclear energy tended to accept its risk and support its use. Male respondents exhibited a higher tolerance of the risk than their female counterparts did. Consistent with past literature, Pan-Blue party supporters were more in favor of nuclear energy than Pan-Green party supporters.
