Summary

The purpose of this observational study is to examine the relationships between disaster response self-efficacy, psychological preparedness for disaster threats, and interdisciplinary readiness levels among undergraduate Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation students. The study will be conducted among students studying in the Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation departments of Pamukkale University, İnönü University, and Alanya Alaaddin Keykubat University in Turkey.

Participants will complete online surveys regarding disaster preparedness while continuing their routine education as part of their active learning. No clinical practice, medical intervention, or experimental procedures will be conducted in the study.

The primary research question of this study is:

Is there a significant relationship between the disaster response self-efficacy, psychological preparedness, and interdisciplinary readiness levels of physiotherapy students? Data will be collected voluntarily via Google Form; students can withdraw from the study at any time. Personal information will not be collected, and all data will be analyzed solely for scientific purposes, in accordance with confidentiality principles. While no medical or physical benefits are expected for participants, the findings are expected to contribute to the development of physiotherapy training curricula for disaster preparedness and crisis management.

The study will commence in December 2025 following ethics committee approval, and the entire process, including data collection, is planned to take approximately six months.
