    Abstract

    When a fire occurs in a building, occupants' evacuation decisions are made in stages of perception, cognition, and behavior. In this study, we selected cognitive factors that affect occupants to recognize fire early. And 11 factors were surveyed for the analysis of response intensity. Based on the questionnaire data, the intensity of each cognitive influencing factor was analyzed and the response difference analysis was performed according to personal variables. As a result, the response intensity was stronger in order of behaviors of others, fire noise, and smoke order, and the differences of cognitive influences by personal age were analyzed.
