The seven life recovely tasks include Housing, Social Support Network, Land Use Plalnning, Physical and Mental Health, Social lnfrastructure and Preparedness, Govemment Assistance Policy, and Economic/Financial Situation. 551 respondents provided open-ended opinions. 1,799 opinions were classified based on the seven elements scheme, which accounted for 85.2% of the total opinions. Rank order of the seven elements corresponded with the hypothesized task structure. The extemal validity of the scheme as well as their structure were discussed based on the current findings.
