In this context, the Work Package 4 of the European Research Project CONFIDENCE aimed at identifying and reducing uncertainties which could emerge in decision-making processes, in order to improve the preparedness and response after a nuclear accident. To that end, stakeholder panels have been set up in several European countries to collect their views and concerns regarding the decisions to be taken in the event of a nuclear crisis (<jats:italic>e.g.<\/jats:italic> evacuation, food restrictions, etc.). More particularly, the implementation of these panels allowed the researchers to (i) identify the main uncertainties that may hamper decision-making processes and to (ii) evaluate the influence of prior decisions made during the emergency phase over the medium to long-term evolution of the situation. Based on these discussions, the various types of uncertainties raised by the national panels have been analysed in order to suggest recommendations to better consider them and to improve the decision-making processes. This paper aims to detail the recommendations resulting from the panels discussions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1051\/radiopro\/2020023","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,5,15]],"date-time":"2020-05-15T09:10:51Z","timestamp":1589533851000},"page":"S135-S143","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"special_numbering":"HS1","title":["Towards an improved decision-making process to better cope with uncertainties following a nuclear accident"],"prefix":"10.1051","volume":"55","author":[{"given":"V.","family":"Durand","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"M.","family":"Ma\u00eetre","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"P.","family":"Croua\u00efl","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"T.","family":"Schneider","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"R.","family":"Sala","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"P.","family":"Marques-Nunes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"I.","family":"Paiva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"O.","family":"Monteiro Gil","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"M.","family":"Reis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"C.","family":"Hilliard","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"V.","family":"Tafili","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"C.","family":"Twenh\u00f6fel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"E.","family":"Van Asselt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"C.","family":"Trueba","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"M.","family":"Montero","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"T.","family":"Duranova","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"250","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,5,15]]},"reference":[{"issue":"HS1","key":"R1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"S43","DOI":"10.1051\/radiopro\/2016011","volume":"51","author":"Averin","year":"2016","journal-title":"Radioprotection"},{"issue":"HS1","key":"R2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"S51","DOI":"10.1051\/radiopro\/2016013","volume":"51","author":"Ban","year":"2016","journal-title":"Radioprotection"},{"issue":"HS2","key":"R3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"S155","DOI":"10.1051\/radiopro\/2016055","volume":"51","author":"Baud\u00e9","year":"2016","journal-title":"Radioprotection"},{"issue":"4","key":"R4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"579","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1539-6924.2012.01791.x","volume":"32","author":"Burns","year":"2012","journal-title":"Risk Anal."},{"key":"R5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Charnock T, \nAndersson K, \nTrueba C, \nMontero M. \n2020. \nUncertainties confronting stakeholders and decision-makers in planning intervention in urban and agricultural scenarios in the transition phase of a radiological emergency. \nRadioprotection 55(HS1). https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1051\/radiopro\/2020021.","DOI":"10.1051\/radiopro\/2020021"},{"issue":"HS2","key":"R6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"S83","DOI":"10.1051\/radiopro\/2016038","volume":"51","author":"Charron","year":"2016","journal-title":"Radioprotection"},{"key":"R7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Duranova T, \nRaskob W, \nBeresford NA, \nKorsakissok I, \nMontero M, \nM\u00fcller T, \nTurcanu C, \nWoda C. \n2020. \nCONFIDENCE dissemination meeting: Summary on the scenario based workshop. \nRadioprotection 55(HS1). https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1051\/radiopro\/2020009.","DOI":"10.1051\/radiopro\/2020009"},{"key":"R8","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"5","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijdrr.2012.05.002","volume":"1","author":"Eiser","year":"2012","journal-title":"Int.
