Detailed Description

This research is a randomized controlled pre-test post-test experimental study aiming to evaluate the effect of the training to be provided. The research data is planned to be collected from women aged 18-60 who voluntarily agreed to participate in the research by taking a handicraft technology course at the Public Education Center affiliated to the Erzincan Provincial Directorate of National Education between April 2024 - April 2025.

The research universe will consist of women who took a handicraft technology course at the Public Education Center affiliated to the Erzincan Provincial Directorate of National Education between the data collection dates, and the sample will consist of 60 women who meet the conditions for inclusion in the research and who voluntarily consent to participate. The individuals constituting the sample will be divided into 2 equal groups by simple randomization.

Sample size of the research; The sample size for the research was determined by power analysis. In the power analysis, it was determined that a total of 52 people should be reached to reach 80% power at a 95% confidence interval at a significance level of 0.05 and a significance level of p<0.05. Considering that there may be data losses in the study, it was decided to reach 15% more of the sample, 60 people (30 experimental, 30 control) (Çapık, 2014).

All questions in the data collection tools (Personal Information Form, Disaster Literacy Scale, General Disaster Preparedness Belief Scale) will be transferred by the researchers and a form will be created for the pre-test. The created form will be applied face to face by the researchers to women who meet the criteria for inclusion in the study and they will be asked to answer all the questions completely.

After the collection of pre-test data in women in our study; It includes the training program to be given to the experimental group based on the ADDIE Model and the post-test to be applied to both groups. The ADDIE Instructional Design Model will be used in this study due to its suitability for adult education. General Disaster Awareness Training will be prepared according to the ADDIE instructional design model consisting of five stages: analysis, design, development, implementation and evaluation. The trainings to be given will be given 3 times in total, 1 training per week, 1 week after the pre-test.

The researchers will not make any interventions to the control group during this period. After the post-test is applied, the educational materials given to the experimental group will be given to the women in the control group.

After the training is completed, all the questions in the data collection tools (Personal Information Form, Disaster Literacy Scale, General Disaster Preparedness Belief Scale) will be transferred by the researchers and a form will be created for the post-test. One week after the training is completed, both groups will be asked to answer all the questions in the created form completely.

From this perspective, it is thought that this research will contribute to the development and dissemination of similar programs by increasing disaster literacy by replacing women's negative beliefs about general disaster preparedness with positive beliefs through the ADDIE Model-based training given to women.

Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in General Disaster Preparedness Belief Level
Time Frame: 1 week before the education and 1 week after the education
General Disaster Preparedness Belief Scale (Inal, Altıntaş & Doğan, 2018). A 31-item, 5-point Likert scale with six sub-dimensions; total score ranges from 31 to 155, where higher scores indicate a stronger disaster preparedness belief.
1 week before the education and 1 week after the education
Change in Disaster Literacy Level
Time Frame: 1 week before the education and 1 week after the education
Disaster Literacy Scale (Çalışkan & Üner, 2023). A 61-item, 5-point Likert scale (1=very difficult to 5=very easy) with four sub-dimensions (harm reduction, preparation, intervention, improvement); the total score ranges from 61 to 305, and a higher score indicates a higher level of disaster literacy.
1 week before the education and 1 week after the education
