福島第一原子力発電所事故後の除染事業における手続き的公正感に寄与する要因の検討

抄録

Decontamination that removes radioactive material spread by the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Accident has been conducted to decrease the impact of radioactivity on human health and the environment. During this process, certain municipalities have devised ways to increase the residents’ sense of procedural justice. However, it has been suggested that certain residents did not completely appreciate these procedures. An online survey was conducted to investigate factors influencing the perceived procedural justice of decontamination. The results of hierarchical multiple regression analyses indicated that various factors were associated with perceived procedural justice, which was based on the perceived necessity for decontamination. Moreover, inappropriate procedures, as well as trust in the government and the operators had an impact on perceived procedural justice in groups indicating both a high and a low necessity for decontamination. Especially, the interpersonal factor and information disclosure increased perceived procedural justice only in the group suggesting a low necessity for decontamination.
