Abstract

The total area of Padang city is 7.613 Ha, and 19.41% of use this area is classified as the red zone area of Tsunami. This study was purposed to analyze society preparedness in the red zone in facing the earthquake and tsunami disaster in Padang City 2019. This study was by cross-sectional design in the red zone area of Padang from March to August 2019. There were 106 respondent and were selected by accidental sampling. Data were collected by questionnaire questionnaire. Data were analyzed using univariate and bivariate analysis with the Chi-Square test and level of confidence 95%. Logistic regression was used for multivariate analysis. The univariate results show more than half (56.6%) of citizen are not ready to against the earthquake and Tsunami, bivariate analysis shows that there was the relationship between the variable of knowledge (p=0.017), education level (p=0045), action (p=0.000), and training (p=0.000) with preparedness. Meanwhile the variable of attitude (p=0,154), gender (p=0,926), experience (p=0,872) have no relationship with preparedness. Based on multivariate analysis, it was found that the dominant factor of preparedness is the training (p=0,001). Based on research that has been done, training is the dominant factor against the preparedness of society in facing the earthquake and Tsunami, therefore it is expected to hold socialization programs and training that can be done periodically either in small or large scale.
