Determining Factors Affecting the Perceived Preparedness of Super Typhoon: Three Broad Domains of Ergonomics Approach

Typhoon Rai (202122) was one of the most devastating natural disasters globally, and Philippines is country that heavily hit by this super typhoon. This study examined preparedness Filipinos using a novel framework considering ergonomic domains disaster knowledge. A total 414 in eight regions affected typhoon answered online questionnaire distributed through social media sites convenience sampling approach. Ergonomic-based indicators for physical, cognitive, macro-ergonomics were analyzed simultaneously with disaster-knowledge such as awareness, adaptation, risk perception. The results from partial least square structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) artificial neural network (ANN) showed physical ergonomics are key factors affecting perceived (202122). Moreover, perception also found to positively influence respondents’ preparedness, while awareness influenced adaptation findings revealed residents highly exposed locations must practice preparation evacuation ahead time. could be utilized educate local communities about importance emergency response options during lessen damage risks associated it.
