Özet:

 The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between earthquake knowledge levels and earthquake risk perceptions of the prospective Social Studies teachers. The study was designed as a quantitative research using a relational screening model. The study group consisted of a total of 114 teacher candidates teaching at different grade levels 1-2-3-4 in the Social Studies teaching department of the faculty of education of a state university located in the Eastern Anatolia Region in the spring semester of the 2023-2024 academic year. The data collection tools used were the personal information form, the Earthquake Knowledge Level Scale developed by Genç and Sözen 2022, and the Earthquake Risk Perception Scale developed by Mızrak, Özdemir and Aslan 2021. The findings were analyzed using a quantitative statistics program and it was revealed that there was no significant difference in the earthquake knowledge levels and earthquake risk perceptions of teacher candidates based on the gender variable.. Moreover, no significant difference was observed in earthquake knowledge levels based on the class variable. In contrast, a significant difference was found in earthquake risk perceptions across different classes. No significant difference was identified in either earthquake knowledge levels or risk perceptions in relation to having experienced an earthquake. However, earthquake knowledge levels differed significantly according to whether participants had received disaster education, whereas earthquake risk perceptions did not show a significant difference in this regard. In an attempt to identify the relationship between the earthquake knowledge levels and earthquake risk perceptions of teacher candidates, a simple linear correlation Pearson Moment Product Correlation Coefficient was performed, revealing that the relationship was positive but not significantly meaningful at a low level.

 Bu araştırmanın amacı, Sosyal Bilgiler öğretmen adaylarının deprem bilgi düzeyleri ile deprem risk algıları arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemektir. Araştırma, nicel bir çalışma olup ilişkisel tarama modeli kullanılacak şekilde tasarlanmıştır. Çalışma grubunu, 2023-2024 eğitim-öğretim yılının bahar döneminde Doğu Anadolu Bölgesinde yer alan bir devlet üniversitesinin eğitim fakültesi Sosyal Bilgiler öğretmenliği anabilim dalında farklı sınıf düzeylerinde 1-2-3-4 öğrenim gören toplam 114 öğretmen adayı oluşturmaktadır. Veri toplama araçları olarak, kişisel bilgi formu, Genç ve Sözen 2022 tarafından geliştirilen Deprem Bilgi Düzeyi Ölçeği ve Mızrak, Özdemir ve Aslan 2021 tarafından geliştirilen Deprem Risk Algısı Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Bulgular nicel istatistik programı kullanılarak analiz edilmiş olup öğretmen adaylarının deprem bilgi düzeyleri ile deprem risk algılarında cinsiyet değişkeni açısından anlamlı bir farklılaşmanın olmadığı; sınıf değişkeni açısından deprem bilgi düzeylerinde farklılığın olmadığı; ancak deprem risk algılarında farklılığın olduğu, deprem felaketini yaşamadeneyimleme değişkeni açısından da farklılaşmanın olmadığı görülmüştür. Bununla birlikte afet eğitimi alma değişkeni açısından deprem bilgi düzeylerinin istatistiksel olarak farklılaştığı ancak deprem risk algılarının farklılaşmadığı görülmüştür. Öğretmen adaylarının deprem bilgi düzeyleri ile deprem risk algıları arasındaki ilişkiyi tespit edebilmek için ise basit doğrusal korelasyon Pearson Momentler Çarpım Korelasyon Katsayısı hesaplaması yapılmış ve ilişkinin pozitif yönde ancak düşük düzeyde anlamlı olmadığı saptanmıştır.
