Disaster literacy can be expressed as the level of receiving, reading, understanding and correctly using information that provides the basis for people to make correct decisions in disaster management processes. In this study, it was aimed to determine the disaster literacy levels of Political Science and Public Administration students. The population and sample of the study consisted of students enrolled in a university's Political Science and Public Administration Program. The data of the study was collected by survey technique between 05.12.2022-07.02.2023. The research was completed with the participation of 107 (72% of the universe) out of 149 participants registered in the relevant program. In the study, a significant a difference was found between the mitigation of harm scores of the participants and their class levels (p<0.05). It was determined that the harm reduction scores of first graders were significantly lower than those of fourth graders. No significant difference was found between age and mitigation, preparation, response, recovery and disaster literacy scores (p>0.05). There is no significant difference between gender and mitigation, preparation, response and recovery scores (p>0.05). According to the findings, it was evaluated that increasing people's disaster literacy levels will significantly contribute to the development of social disaster resilience.

Afet okuryazarlığı kişilerin afet yönetim süreçlerinde doğru kararlar alabilmesine zemin hazırlayan bilgiyi alma, okuma, anlama ve doğru bir şekilde kullanma düzeyi olarak ifade edilebilir. Yapılan bu çalışmada Siyaset Bilimi ve Kamu Yönetimi öğrencilerinin afet okuryazarlık düzeylerinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmanın evren ve örneklemini bir üniversitenin Siyaset Bilimi ve Kamu Yönetimi Programına kayıtlı öğrenciler oluşturmuştur. Çalışmanın verileri 05.12.2022-07.02.2023 tarihleri arasında anket tekniği ile toplanmıştır. Araştırma ilgili programa kayıtlı 149 katılımcıdan, 107 (Evrenin %72’si) kişinin katılımı ile tamamlanmıştır. Çalışmada katılımcıların zarar azaltma puanları ile sınıf düzeyleri arasında anlamlı bir fark bulunmuştur (p<0.05). Birinci sınıfta olanların, dördüncü sınıfta olanlara göre zarar azaltma puanlarının anlamlı derecede düşük olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Yaş ile zarar azaltma, hazırlık, müdahale, iyileştirme ve afet okuryazarlık puanları arasında anlamlı bir fark tespit edilememiştir (p>0.05). Cinsiyet ile zarar azaltma, hazırlık, müdahale ve iyileştirme puanları arasında anlamlı bir fark bulunmamaktadır (p>0.05). Elde edilen bulgulara göre kişilerin afet okuryazarlık seviyelerinin artırılmasının toplumsal afet dirençliliğinin geliştirilmesine önemli derecede katkı sunacağı değerlendirilmiştir.
