Abstract

Disaster preparedness is an effective way to reduce disaster risks. Indonesian students as agents of change in disaster risk reduction need to be equipped with preparedness behavior in an event of earthquakes. This research aims at determining the effects of knowledge, experience, and self-efficacy on students’ earthquake preparedness behavior. This research used an electronic questionnaire with 51 respondents, who were randomly selected from students in Padang and Surakarta Cities. A questionnaire with 40 question items was developed for this research. The research data were analyzed using multiple regression analyses with SPSS 26.00. The results of this research show that 62,8% of the preparedness behavior variables could be explained by the experience, knowledge and self-efficacy variables. Self-efficacy and knowledge variables had a significant effect on the students’ earthquake preparedness behavior. These results indicated that enhancing student’s self-efficacy and knowledge are required to improve their preparedness behaviors towards earthquake disaster.
