With the continuous development of China's economy,information,industrialization,and urbanization are rising steadily.However,the public problems caused by the construction and operation of "neighboring" facilities have become major challenges currently faced by governments at all levels.The public in some areas is strongly opposed to the neighbouring facilities and has even led to major group incidents.There is a close relationship between the public's perception of neighbouring facilities and the public's actions,which has also been the focus of academic research.This study attempts to explore the internal mechanism of the public's resistance to behavior,and to further improve the causal chain of "risk perception-resistance to behavior".This study,through a review and discussion of existing domestic and foreign related research,puts forward hypotheses about the public's perception of harm,interest,anxiety,relative deprivation,government trust,and its influence on the public's propensity to resist behavior.The residents of the villages around the LX chemical plant in L city were selected as the research sample.Through the empirical analysis of 379 questionnaires,it was found that hazard perception has a positive predictive effect on relative deprivation and anxiety,that is,the higher the public's hazard perception,The stronger the sense of relative deprivation and anxiety;the perception of interest has a positive predictive effect on government trust and a negative predictive effect on relative deprivation.That is,the higher the level of interest perceived by the public,the higher the degree of trust in the government,and the weaker their relative deprivation;the anxiety,relative deprivation,and government trust have mediating effects in the model.Anxiety perception has a significant positive impact on the tendency to resist behavior,and at the same time,it has a significant positive impact on the perception of harm.It has been proved that a lower level of harm perception can reduce the level of anxiety perception and thus reduce the behavior of resistance.The sense of relative deprivation has a significant positive effect on the public's intention to fight,and it is also significantly negatively affected by the perception of interest and a significant positive effect of the perception of harm.This indicates that a lower degree of harm perception and a higher degree of benefit perception can effectively reduce Relative levels of public deprivation,thereby reducing the incidence of protest.In addition,this study finds that government trust has a significant positive impact on resistance to behavior,and is also significantly positively affected by interest perception,which indicates that a higher degree of interest perception can effectively increase public trust in government,and thus improve public adoption of non-Institutionalized political participation means expressing their own wishes.Finally,it is verified that there are two-way impact models of "risk perception-emotion-resistance behavior tendency" and "risk perception-cognitive evaluation-resistance behavior tendency".Based on the above research results and discussion of the results,this study proposes the following suggestions for the solution of chemical plant type aversion problems and improvement of the public's attitude: balancing risk-benefit relationships and coordinating the rights and interests of various entities;improving the operation level of chemical plants and reducing the root causes Perceive risk;strengthen risk communication awareness,and focus on emotional and cognitive links;face up to noninstitutionalized political participation,and build channels for benefit appeal.
