Abstract

Materials and Methods: This study employed a survey research design with an exploratory quantitative approach using Many-Facet Rasch Model (MFRN) analysis. The data used for the analysis of the assessment instrument measuring teachers' attitudes towards earthquake disaster preparedness in schools were field data obtained from a survey conducted by three raters assessing 33 elementary school teachers in Palu City. The instrument consisted of 20 items, resulting in a total of 1980 collected data points.

Results: The item reliability value was 0.94, indicating that the instrument's quality falls within the "excellent" criteria with a high level of reliability. However, the analysis results indicated that some items assessing teachers' attitudes towards earthquake disaster preparedness in schools had a high level of difficulty. This suggests the need for further examination of disaster preparedness topics in specific areas that teachers may not be adequately prepared for. There was a significant variation in teachers' abilities to answer the instrument's items, highlighting the necessity for a more differentiated approach. Teachers with lower abilities should receive additional assistance and support to ensure that they can also enhance their preparedness.
