dc.description.abstractThis study aims to examine whether fatalism tendency is a predictor of disaster preparedness belief in university students. In this study in which correlational research design was used, the data were obtained by convenience sampling method from the students studying at a university and voluntarily participating in the study. Demographic information form, fatalism scale and disaster preparedness belief scale were used as data collection tools. Data were collected through online forms. A total of 212 university students with an average age of 19.92±1.46 years, mostly 169 (79.72%) of whom were female, participated in the study. Pearson correlation and multiple linear regression analyses were used to analyse the data. As a result of the study, fatalism tendencies of the students were found to be moderate and disaster preparedness belief levels were found to be high. When the relationships between the participants' fatalistic tendencies and disaster preparedness beliefs were analysed, a significant negative relationship was found between fatalistic tendency and disaster preparedness beliefs. The results showed that as the perception of personal control weakened and the belief in luck and superstition increased, the belief in disaster preparedness decreased. In addition, regression analysis revealed that the weak perception of personal control and the tendency to believe in luck and superstitious beliefs contributed to the belief in disaster preparedness. © 2023, Ankara University.
