Introduction:
Crises and accidents are an inevitable reality in social Life, crises in various types and in all sorts of ways have always had important implications for security. They have long been an integral part of social life and diversity, and diversity have been increasing day by day, and there have been special crises in every age.
Many crisis management techniques developed to deal with crises, have adopted certain mechanisms (Pearson, 2014). According to the global incident, Iran is globally vulnerable in terms of vulnerability and geographically and geologically, and is in a special position and is among the top 10 in the world. Of the 40 well-known natural disasters in the world, there are 32 of them, such as earthquakes, floods, fires, droughts, and many other cases in Iran.
There are three basic steps in crisis, which are management, prediction, prevention, and preparedness. Retrieval, rebuilding and learning are the most important steps in the post-crisis phase. Meanwhile, rescue operations, special operations and crisis management considered as the most important management measures during the crisis (Mitrotov, 2016). The type of crisis measures and the patterns adopted by managers to deal with the anomy status are the type of attitude of people and authorities towards the crisis, because according to the type of attitude, the crisis management approach will be Different (Bass, 2015)
For this purpose, in this research, the pattern of increasing the sense of security in disaster management in Tehran was taken into consideration. The impact of disaster management can be seen on reducing the feeling of irregularity, reducing the incidence of crime and delinquency among citizens, social protection of citizens, and reducing risk and prosperity among citizens.
Method:
Regarding the nature and type of research, this research is a descriptive-survey research and is an applied research. The statistical population of the directors, deputies and experts of the crisis management headquarters in Tehran and citizens aged 18 to 60 years old in 22 municipality districts of Tehran. Sampling was conducted in a random-class manner. The sample size on the Cochran formula for executives, deputies, and experts from the crisis management headquarters in Tehran and citizens totaling 416 people. The Data gathering tool was a library study and a researcher-made questionnaire based on the Likert scale, and the Cronbach's alpha coefficient test used to determine the reliability of the questionnaire, and it was 0.839. In this research, descriptive statistical methods and inference section was used. The results were shown by tables and graphs and analyzed by SPSS software 23.
Findings:
The difference between the theoretical mean and the mean of respondents is less than 0.01, therefore the research hypotheses that "management of the disaster crisis in reducing the feeling of irregularity, reducing the incidence of crime and delinquency, protection and well-being Social and risk reduction among citizens " was found to be acceptable.
According to the results, the greatest impact of crisis management on increasing sense of security from the experts' was social support and social welfare (0.99), rrisk reduction (0.666), reduction of crimes and delinquency (0.263), and social order (0.154), and according to citizens' view, the greatest impact of crisis management on increasing the sense of security including risk and risk reduction (0.495), social support (0.355), social order (111.1) and reducing crimes and delinquency (0.16)
Discussion:
The results of this study are consistent with those of Ahmadi and Rev’s (1393) study in in which it was found that there is a significant relationship between social participation variables, police performance as independent and social security variables. Which is consistent with the results of the research. Najibi Rabieh (1393), in a research entitled "The Factors Affecting the Level of Social Security Sensitivity with Emphasis on Capital," states that the various forms of capital and social class are directly related to the degree of security feeling. In addition, it was found that the combination of variables economic, social, educational and occupational support can explain some of the changes in the sense of security.
Sarokhani and Navidnia’s (1395) studies show that the security of life, work, and finances is effective in reducing risk and increasing the sense of security. The results of Samadhi and Baja Hosseini’s (1393) study show that there is a significant relationship between socioeconomic status, social trust and the tendency toward participation with social security feeling. In the study of regression relations, a value was obtained which indicates that the variables introduced in the model only explain 25, 8 percent of the variables of the dependent variable and have the greatest effect on the variable of emotion.
Ethical considerations
Ethical considerations are an important factor in research. Since this research involves the participation of individuals, ethical principles such as honesty and respect for others generally understood and accepted. In this research, legal and ethical responsibilities considered during data collection, which: 1- People participated voluntarily in the statistical sample. 2- The respondents have given informed consent. 3- Answers are completely confidential. 4- The anonymity of the respondents is preserved. 5- People's privacy is preserved.
