J Sch Violence. 2020;19(1):93–106. https://doi.org/10.1080/15388220.2019.1703720. This study highlighted different impacts of lockdown drill training and showed an inverse relationship between perceptions of emergency preparedness and perceptions of safety. While emergency preparedness, including confidence and awareness of procedures, is improved by drills, students, especially older cohorts, may feel decreased sense of safety.
