Strengthening Children’s Earthquake Preparedness Through Family-Based Disaster Planning: A Home-to-School Study in Banyuwangi Regency
Main Article Content
Abstract
Background: Earthquakes often occur without warning, and although they can be monitored, the exact timing remains uncertain. A lack of community preparedness contributes to both physical and social consequences when such disasters strike. Disaster preparedness is therefore essential to reduce the risks and impacts of earthquakes.
Purpose: This study aims to examine the effect of family disaster planning on children’s preparedness attitudes in the context of earthquake risk.
Method: A pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design was used. The study involved 32 respondents selected through stratified sampling from a population of 409 parents of school-aged children. Data were collected using a preparedness attitude questionnaire administered before and after a family disaster planning intervention. The results were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test.
Results: Prior to the intervention, 40.6% of respondents were categorized as having a good preparedness attitude. Following the intervention, this figure increased to 100%. A median increase of 11 was observed, indicating a statistically significant improvement. The Wilcoxon test yielded a p-value of 0.000 (α < 0.005), confirming the intervention's effectiveness.
Conclusion: Family disaster planning significantly enhances children’s preparedness attitudes toward earthquake risks. These findings underscore the value of incorporating household-based preparedness strategies within broader community and educational disaster risk reduction efforts.
