    Evaluation of the Effect of Women's Psychological Power on Disaster Risk Perception
    (Cambridge Univ Press, 2025) Zeybekoglu, Fatma Gunduz; Usta, Galip; Atalay, Ezgi; Torpus, Kemal
    Objectives In this study, we aimed to examine the effect of women's perceptions of psychological power related to gender roles on their disaster risk perceptions.Methods This cross-sectional and descriptive study was planned in a correlational design. The study was completed with 272 people who met the inclusion criteria. Data for the study were collected between February 21, 2024 and March 7, 2024. The Independent sample t test was used for the comparison of two independent groups and one way analysis of variance was used for the comparison of two or more unrelated groups. A Pearson correlation analysis was used to examine the relationship between numerical variables.Results Women who had previously experienced a disaster were found to have higher scores on the strength/advocacy, threat, anxiety, and disaster risk perception scale than those who had not. A moderate positive correlation was found between the increase in women's perceptions of psychological power and their perceptions of threat, controllability, anxiety levels, and disaster risk perceptions, while a low negative correlation was found with their perceptions of fatalism.Conclusions It was concluded that women's psychological strength affects disaster risk perception. Psychological empowerment of women is thought to be important in ensuring disaster resilience.

    Flood disaster experiences of elderly individuals living in the western black sea region of Türkiye: a phenomenological study
    (Bmc, 2025) Atalay, Ezgi; Gunduz Zeybekoglu, Fatma; Torpus, Kemal; Usta, Galip
    The increase in the elderly population, the issue of flood risk management and flood preparedness stands out as an important issue that needs special attention. This study aimed to evaluate the feelings and thoughts of the elderly individuals who experienced floods in T & uuml;rkiye before, during, and after the floods, and to reveal how they were affected, their vulnerability, and coping capacities. In this regard, phenomenological design, one of the qualitative research methods, was used in the study. Purposive sampling techniques were used for this study. A semi-structured interview form, which was prepared by the researchers by reviewing the relevant literature and taking expert opinions, was used to collect the data. The data of the study were collected between September and October 2024. The study was carried out with 14 people based on data saturation. Within the scope of the study, three themes were created. These are (theme 1) elderly people's risk knowledge and their views on the preparation process, (theme 2) vulnerabilities and coping capacities of elderly individuals during disasters, and (theme 3) post-flood needs, social network relations, and lessons learned. As a result of the analysis, it was determined that elderly individuals were aware of local disaster hazards, but despite this, the elderly did not make individual disaster preparations. It was determined that elderly individuals do not have sufficient access to early warning messages before the flood disaster occurs. During the disaster, elderly individuals were trapped in water, exhibited risky behaviors, experienced fragility during the evacuation process, and suffered material and moral losses. In the post-disaster period, elderly individuals have some basic needs such as clean water, medicine, shelter, toilets, nutrition, clothing, and health care, and their neighbors and relatives provide support in meeting these needs. The results obtained from the study may contribute to increasing the flood response capacity for elderly individuals, a vulnerable group in disasters.

    Investigation of Avalanche Events Occurring in Palandöken Ski Resort
    (Cambridge Univ Press, 2025) Torpus, Kemal; Usta, Galip; Atalay, Ezgi; Gunduz, Fatma
    The aim of the study is to examine the avalanche events that occurred in Erzurum Paland & ouml;ken Ski Resort. Paland & ouml;ken's topography makes it vulnerable to avalanches. Avalanches are the rapid and sudden flow of snow masses accumulated on slopes and are considered one of the natural disasters. Several avalanches have occurred on Paland & ouml;ken Mountain, leading to tragic results. In 1974, six people were buried under an avalanche and rescue teams were injured in a secondary avalanche. In subsequent years, avalanches died four people in 1975, one person in 1976, and eight people on Dragon Peak in 1977. In 2006, one tourist died in an avalanche on Paland & ouml;ken Mountain. The last avalanche disaster on Paland & ouml;ken Mountain, which occurred on December 21, 2024, resulted in the death of an athlete from the Kocaeli Judo National Team of the Turkish Olympic Preparation Center. Paland & ouml;ken, one of T & uuml;rkiye's leading winter tourism destinations, hosts international events but faces significant avalanche risks due to its topography. In order to reduce these risks, it is essential to establish avalanche early warning and monitoring systems, provide avalanche safety training for tourists and personnel, and implement infrastructure measures to reduce avalanche hazards.

    THE EFFECT OF EARTHQUAKE KNOWLEDGE AND RISK PERCEPTION ON SOCIAL SUSTAINABLE EARTHQUAKE AWARENESS
    (Inonu University, 2024) Gündüz, Fatma; Atalay, Ezgi; Torpus, Kemal; Usta, Galip
    The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between participants' earthquake risk perception and knowledge level and sustainable earthquake awareness in terms of various variables. The study is descriptive cross-sectional research. 559 volunteer individuals participated in the study. Relationships between quantitative variables were determined with Pearson correlation analysis. Our research found that there is a significant difference between gender and earthquake risk perception. It has been determined that my disaster experience has an impact on the level of earthquake knowledge. Women were found to have lower earthquake knowledge scores than men. Women were found to have higher earthquake risk perception scores than men. Single people had higher cognitive earthquake risk perception scores than married people. It was found that the earthquake risk perception scores of the disaster survivors were higher than those of the non-survivors. More comprehensive studies may be needed to understand the interaction of factors such as gender, marital status, and disaster experience on earthquake knowledge level and risk perception. These studies can contribute to the development of more effective education and awareness strategies for the general earthquake preparedness of society.

    TÜRKİYE'DE MEYDANA GELEN KAHRAMANMARAŞ MERKEZLİ DEPREMİN AFET KRİZ YÖNETİMİ AÇISINDAN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ: AFAD X (TWİTTER) ÖRNEĞİ
    (2025) Atalay, Ezgi; Torpus, Kemal; Usta, Galip; Tunçay, Tülay; Gündüz, Fatma
    Bu çalışma, AFAD'ın X hesabının etkinliğini ölçmeyi ve sosyal medyanın doğru bilgi ve koordinasyon sağlamadaki rolünü belirlemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Çalışmada AFAD tarafından 01 Ocak 2023 ile 05 Mart 2023 tarihleri arasında gönderilen tweetler deprem öncesi ve sonrası olarak dönemlere ayrılmıştır. Deprem öncesi ve sonrasında atılan tweetler karşılaştırılmıştır. AFAD'ın resmi X hesabından 6 Şubat 2023'te meydana gelen depremin ardından aktif olarak bilgi ve uyarı paylaşımında bulunulduğu tespit edilmiştir. Paylaşılan içeriklerin dayanışma örnekleri, arama kurtarma çalışmaları, kayıp kişi sayısı, barınma ihtiyaçları ve tahliye yönetimini kapsadığı tespit edilmiştir. Afet yönetiminde sosyal medya hesaplarının aktif kullanımı önemlidir. AFAD'ın X hesabı afet öncesi hazırlık konusunda daha fazla bilgi edinilmesine katkı sağlayabilir. Deprem sonrası iletişim stratejilerinde trend kelimelerin analizi, afet yönetimi ve müdahalesi için gerekli bilgileri sağlamak için kullanılabilir.
