Özet:

 This study aimed to examine the factors associated with earthquake fear and coping strategies developed by people. This cross-sectional and descriptive study was conducted with individuals over 18 years of age. The sample of the study consisted of 883 people who agreed to participate in the study. The study data were collected using the Personal Characteristics Form, Fear of Earthquake Scale, and Coping with Earthquake Stress Scale. In the study, it was found that females level of earthquake fear is higher than that of males. Married individuals have a higher level of earthquake fear compared to single individuals. It was found that those who received disaster awareness training and those who wanted to receive disaster awareness training had lower earthquake fear mean scores. As the levels of seeking social support, using religious coping, and positive reappraisal increase, the level of earthquake fear decreases. It has been determined that seeking social support is more commonly used than religious coping and positive reappraisal to cope with earthquake fear. Social support has been found to be a significant factor in coping with earthquake fear.

 Bu çalışma, insanların deprem korkusu ve geliştirdikleri başa çıkma stratejileri ile ilişkili faktörleri incelemeyi amaçlamıştır. Kesitsel ve tanımlayıcı nitelikteki bu çalışma 18 yaş üstü bireylerle yürütülmüştür. Çalışmanın örneklemi, çalışmaya katılmayı kabul eden 883 kişiden oluşmaktadır. Çalışma verileri Kişisel Özellikler Formu, Deprem Korkusu Ölçeği ve Deprem Stresiyle Başa Çıkma Ölçeği kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Çalışmada, kadınların deprem korkusu düzeyinin erkeklere göre daha yüksek olduğu bulunmuştur. Evli bireylerin deprem korku düzeyleri bekar bireylere göre daha yüksektir. Afet bilinci eğitimi alanların ve afet bilinci eğitimi almak isteyenlerin deprem korkusu puan ortalamalarının daha düşük olduğu bulunmuştur. Sosyal destek arama, dini başa çıkma ve olumlu yeniden değerlendirme düzeyleri arttıkça deprem korkusu düzeyi azalmaktadır. Deprem korkusuyla başa çıkmada sosyal destek arayışının dini başa çıkma ve olumlu yeniden değerlendirmeden daha yaygın olarak kullanıldığı tespit edilmiştir. Sosyal desteğin deprem korkusu ile başa çıkmada önemli bir faktör olduğu bulunmuştur.
