This book reports on the investigation of the public's perception
of Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Field (RF-EMF) radiation effects
on health and well-being, in Malaysia. It elaborates on how
understanding the impact of perceived risk is essential in order to
investigate the explanatory value and effectiveness of
interventions influencing these beliefs. The book expands on the
knowledge and understanding of different risk perception related to
radiation in order to explain the gap in literature regarding the
relationship between risk perceptions that lead to public
behaviors. In doing so, the book presents empirical findings of a
national study that unveils two key factors affecting public risk
perceptions: psycho-graphic and personal factors. It offers a more
collective and cultural understanding of public perceptions on
radiation risks via a systematic mixed-method research approach.
Research in the book also show that while the radiation risk is
recognizable and unavoidable, the relevant stakeholders should be
more proactive and committed to communicate and rectify the
perception of radiation. The book thus serves as a valuable source
of reference to understand the debate and to invite more
participatory dialogues on radiation risk perceptions among public.
