Data from Surveys Conducted with Businesses in Post-Hurricane Maria Puerto Rico , in Stakeholder Interdependencies in Post-Disaster Relocation Under High Uncertainty

Post-disaster relocation is a complex process affected by interdependencies between relocation decisions of different stakeholders and the ways in which these interdependencies evolve over time and through different pathways. This project’s overall goal is to advance our scientific knowledge of the factors that affect community relocation decisions of households and businesses in highly uncertain and emergent institutional environments. Its specific aims are to investigate: (i) resources households and businesses use to make relocation decisions; (ii) the interdependencies between household and business relocation decisions; and, (iii) the dependence of household and business relocation decisions upon the actions of nonprofits or volunteer groups. The research is based on an embedded multi-case study conducted in Puerto Rico in the aftermath of Hurricanes Irma and Maria in 2017. Puerto Rico represents an ideal case for this research as a U.S. territory that has many underserved communities with informal practices (e.g., self-built or informal housing) dealing with uncertain and constantly changing formal institutions (i.e., rules and policies such as the Repair, Reconstruction, or Relocation, R3 program).

Data collection methods include household surveys, business surveys, and role-playing games conducted in two disaster-impacted communities in Puerto Rico (i.e., Comerío and Loíza).

This publication does not include data as per the University of Utah Institutional Review Board (IRB) regulations that restricts public data sharing—including de-identified datasets. It includes data collection instruments, household and business surveys, and role-playing game guides (i.e., in English and Spanish) as well as the data analysis sheets that contain a summary of household and business surveys and role-playing games used for analysis. The data collection instruments specifically include survey instruments used to collect data from households and businesses in two Puerto Rican communities and the guides used for role-playing game sessions.

灾后安置是一项复杂的系统过程，其受两类核心因素共同影响：一是不同利益相关方的安置决策间的相互依存关系，二是这类依存关系随时间推移、经由不同路径演化的动态模式。

本项目的总体目标是，深化我们对高度不确定且处于动态形成中的制度环境下，影响家庭与企业社区安置决策的各类因素的科学认知。其具体研究目标包括：(i) 家庭与企业在制定安置决策时所依托的各类资源；(ii) 家庭与企业安置决策之间的相互依存关系；(iii) 家庭与企业安置决策对非营利组织或志愿团体行动的依赖程度。

本研究基于2017年飓风“艾尔玛”与“玛丽亚”过境后在波多黎各开展的嵌入式多案例研究。波多黎各作为美国领地，拥有众多存在非正规实践（如自建住房或非正规住房）的服务不足社区，且需应对充满不确定性且持续变化的正式制度（如《修复、重建与安置》（Repair, Reconstruction, or Relocation, R3）计划等规则与政策），因此是本研究的理想案例场景。

数据收集方法包括在波多黎各两个受灾害影响的社区（即科梅里奥（Comerío）与洛伊萨（Loíza））开展的家庭问卷调查、企业问卷调查以及角色扮演游戏。

根据犹他大学（University of Utah）机构审查委员会（Institutional Review Board, IRB）关于限制公开数据共享（包括去标识化数据集）的规定，本数据集不包含原始调研数据。本资源包含数据收集工具、家庭与企业调查问卷、角色扮演游戏指南（含英文与西班牙语版本），以及用于分析的家庭与企业问卷调查及角色扮演游戏数据汇总分析表。

其中，数据收集工具具体涵盖用于在波多黎各两个社区采集家庭与企业调研数据的问卷工具，以及用于角色扮演游戏环节的指南手册。
