Abstract

Intruduction:Preparedness is an effort carried out to anticipate the possibility of a disaster in order to avoid loss of life, loss of property, and changes in the life order of the community. Preparedness to face a disaster is a condition of individuals and groups who have physical and psychological abilities in dealing with disasters. The purpose of the study was to develop a community-based landslide disaster preparedness model. Methods:Research and Development research design, procedural model. The first year-1 is the model development stage, the second year is making module products and the third year is testing the effectiveness of module products. The population is all HH in the four major populations, 3498 HH. The sample size is 99 HH, the sampling technique is proportionate sampling technique. The independent variables are knowledge and attitude systems, policies and guidelines, intervening variable emergency response plans, early warning systems, and human resource mobilization, the dependent variable is disaster preparedness. The data collection instrument is a questionnaire. Statistical analysis is a structural model path analysis. Results: The results of the statistical analysis of the major paths of influence on preparedness are the influence of policies on preparedness 0.021165, mobilization of 0.458644, knowledge of attitudes 0.052477, early warning 0.232141, emergency response plans 0.055921. The conclusion of this study is that efforts to reduce disaster risk through building community preparedness can be built through policies, knowledge and attitude systems, emergency response plans, early warnings and resource mobilization. Conclution:The most dominant factor is the resource mobilization factor. The recommendation from the results of the study is that further research needs to explore other factors because the factors analyzed with low results are less than 50%
