-~24- the communication process prepared in Phase 2. In addition, assistance will be given in preparing communications, ing crucial communication elements etc.) (e.g., identify- credible sources, and implementing the process in appropriate settings. As previously indicated, field test results will assist DOE representatives and project investigators in determining responses to various communications with Marshallese. the early resettlement of Enewetak Atoll, During and possibly another island in Bikini Atoll, behavior of the residents will need to be monitored to fully determine the degree to which communications produce desired outcomes, e.g., refraining from visit- ing specific atolls or eating toxic foods. Investigators can prepare a monitoring procedure which could be accomplished through direct observation of residents and interviews with key informants. (1) Observations and interviews could focus on: initial response of residents to communications including formal and informal communications initiated by residents and their respective representatives and/or attorneys) (e.g., Micronesian Congress in response to federal representative communi- cations concerning atoll health and safety; and (2) short-term adjustments to atoll life and relationships to expected behavioral outcomes predicted by the communication process including possible deviations or departures from behavior intended by the process. Continued monitoring of the effectiveness of the communication process is essential in preventing confusion and misunderstanding of radiological topics. Early identification of communication difficulties can occur and alternate strategies can be selected and put into effect. The structure of the process
