Abstract
Disaster awareness and preparedness play an important role in making people less affected by disasters. This study aimed to measure the levels of disaster awareness and preparedness on university students and to determine the effect of disaster awareness on preparedness and the overall relationship between them. The study sample consists of 418 students studying in different programs at Artvin Vocational School of Artvin Coruh University. In the study, the survey was form prepared by utilizing disaster preparedness and disaster awareness scales were applied via face-to-face interaction to the students by simple random sampling method. As a result, it was found that the variables of gender and disaster experience didn’t on affect disaster awareness and preparedness. Variables such as disaster education, the program (Disaster-related; Others), and individuals who have experienced a disaster in their immediate environment (such as family, relatives, and friends) significantly affect disaster awareness and preparedness. It was also found that there is a positive relationship between disaster awareness and disaster preparedness and disaster awareness has a low-level significant effect on disaster preparedness.
