| Summary: | Nowadays, the study of people’s conception toward the way they provide help in an earthquake is of utmost importance. The purpose of this study has been to describe and explain the condition of humanitarian help in the Kermanshah earthquake. To achieve this goal, a theoretical framework has been developed based on theories of social psychology: John Piliavin's social exchange, Latané and Darley’s theory of decision making process, and Alvin Goldner's Social Responsibility. The sample size of the study was 220 residents of Tehran aged over 18. A multi-stage cluster sampling method was used. The results showed that 69 percent of the people in Tehran contributed to the Kermanshah earthquake, 48 percent of which was in the form of cash and 36 percent non-cash. The explanatory results of the PLS software showed that the financial status of individuals had a coefficient of 29%, the extent of financial assurance to donor organizations had a coefficient of 19%, the experience of past earthquakes had a coefficient of 20%, and obtaining a spiritual reward had a coefficient of 16%. |
