Abstract

In this study, how the relationship between earthquake awareness and urban planning is perceived by the society in Süleymanpaşa District of Tekirdağ Province was examined. For this purpose, the survey aimed to evaluate the attitudes of 363 Süleymanpaşa residents towards earthquake awareness and their general awareness of the association between urban planning processes and an earthquake-focused approach. The findings were analysed using descriptive statistics, factor analysis and hierarchical cluster analysis. These results will inform the development of urban planning policies and disaster risk reduction strategies that align with public awareness.

Özet

Çalışmada, Tekirdağ İli Süleymanpaşa İlçesinde deprem bilinci ile kentsel planlama arasındaki ilişkinin toplum tarafından nasıl algılandığı incelenmiştir. Bu amaçla anket yöntemi çerçevesinde, Tekirdağ İli Süleymanpaşa İlçesi’nde yaşayan 363 kişinin deprem bilincine (bilgi, tutum) yönelik eğilimi ile kentsel planlama süreçlerinin deprem odaklı yaklaşımla ilişkilendirilmesine yönelik genel farkındalıklarının (tutum ve davranışlarının) değerlendirilmesi hedeflenmiştir. Bulgular; tanımlayıcı istatistikler ile faktör analizi ve hiyerarşik kümeleme analizi çerçevesinde analiz edilmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlar; kentsel planlama politikalarının ve afet risk azaltma stratejilerinin toplum bilinci ile uyumlu şekilde geliştirilmesine katkı sağlayacaktır.
