Description

In this research, we analyzed how the website audiences evaluate the information on the website concerning the nuclear power, especially Q and A on the website of Japan Atomic Energy Commission and Nuclear Safety Commission of Japan. The questionnaire was carried out for 30 audiences in order to measure the consistency, clarity and usefulness of each Q and A article of the two sites. After having collected data, we evaluated the impact of the consistency and clarity factors on the usefulness factor by correlation analysis using the covariance structure analysis. In the result, we found that, in order to utilize the information on the website to risk communication, it is important that the article is consistent, and that the article feels clarity by the website audiences.
