Abstract
Lahar floods are among the most destructive secondary volcanic hazards and often cause severe disruption to communities and schools in affected areas. This study aimed to analyze students’ experiences of lahar disasters, their level of self-awareness, and the relationship between both variables. The research was conducted at MTsN 7 Tanah Datar, one of the schools directly affected by the 2023 Mount Marapi lahar flood, using a quantitative correlational method. Data were collected from 150 students through a structured questionnaire covering indicators of direct experience, knowledge of lahar characteristics, preparedness, emotional awareness, accurate self-assessment, and self-confidence. The results showed that students’ disaster experiences were generally high, especially in direct experience (70%) and knowledge of lahar characteristics (85%), while preparedness remained moderate (60%). Students’ self-awareness was also mostly in the moderate category across emotional awareness, self-assessment, and self-confidence. Pearson correlation analysis indicated a positive and significant relationship between lahar disaster experience and students’ self-awareness, although the correlation strength was low. These findings demonstrate that direct exposure to lahar events plays a role in shaping students’ self-awareness; however, their practical preparedness and confidence still require strengthening. Therefore, the study concludes that enhanced disaster education—particularly through simulations and practice-based learning—is essential to improve students’ self-awareness and readiness in facing lahar floods.
