Abstract

This study aimed to examine the effect of disaster preparedness literacy on individual disaster resilience and related factors. The universe of the research consists of individuals between the ages of 18-52. Software packages AMOS 23 and SPSS 26 were used to analyze the study's data. Mann Whitney U test and Kruskal Wallis H test were used for non-parametric variables, whereas the T test and ANOVA were used for parametric variables. The associations between variables were investigated using correlation analysis and basic linear regression analysis. According to the findings, as disaster literacy increases, individual disaster resilience increases. The individual disaster resilience level of males was higher than that of females, the individual disaster resilience level of married individuals was higher than that of single individuals, and those who have experienced a disaster before have a higher level of individual disaster resilience than those who haven't experienced a disaster. Males have higher levels of disaster literacy than females. Married individuals have higher disaster literacy levels than singles. As the age increases, the level of individual disaster resilience and disaster literacy increases. It is considered important to develop community-based disaster awareness training programs and strategies to increase individual disaster resilience.

备灾知识对个人抗灾能力的影响。

本研究旨在探讨备灾素养对个人抗灾能力及相关因素的影响。研究对象包括年龄在 18-52 岁之间的个人。研究使用 AMOS 23 和 SPSS 26 软件包分析数据。非参数变量采用 Mann Whitney U 检验和 Kruskal Wallis H 检验，参数变量采用 T 检验和方差分析。使用相关分析和基本线性回归分析研究了变量之间的关联。研究结果表明，随着灾害素养的提高，个人的抗灾能力也会提高。男性的个人抗灾能力高于女性，已婚者的个人抗灾能力高于单身者，经历过灾害的人的个人抗灾能力高于未经历过灾害的人。男性的灾害知识水平高于女性。已婚者的灾害知识水平高于单身者。随着年龄的增长，个人的抗灾能力和灾害知识水平也在提高。因此，制定以社区为基础的灾害意识培训计划和战略以提高个人的抗灾能力非常重要。

With the events of September 11, the subsequent anthrax attacks, the tsunami in Indonesia, hurricane Katrina, SARS and the H1N1 Influenza Pandemic, all health care and public health professionals must be prepared to respond to emergency situations. In support of these pressing public health needs, Disaster Medicine and Public Health Preparedness is committed to the medical and public health communities who are the stewards of the health and security of citizens worldwide.
