Survey on Wireless Emergency Alerts
The Wireless RERC is surveying people to understand the effectiveness of WEA messages. Participation in this study will enhance the development of more effective WEA messages by understanding:

    # Current barriers to message access presented by device design, access to WEA-capable devices, and/or individual use habits (e.g., silencing the phone while sleeping); and
    # Your behavioral response to WEA messages.

The survey is open to any U.S.  resident aged 18 or older.  We encourage you to take the survey yourself and share it with friends, family, and colleagues so they too can provide their responses.  Please take the time (no more than 15 minutes) to complete the survey.

If you wish to take the survey over the phone, please email salimah at cacp.gatech.edu_to schedule a time.

Frequently Asked Questions page about EAS.  Unfortunately, the person who
answered most of the questions retired.
