In the meantime, emergency events have attained more attention and have been spread more quickly than they did ever before by this way. However, the public opinion on Internet usually exerts a heavy impact on the development of emergency events as well as the social psychology. This paper presented a cycle model to describe the Internet spreading process of emergency events, and applied the Tobit model to research the influence factors in that process. After analyzing the social psychological impacts, a life-cycle emergency management methodology and the related strategies were proposed for the achievement of healthy spreading environment on Internet. |
