| Summary: | This research examines the emotional, social, and cognitive experiences of the 2023 earthquake in Turkey from a phenomenological perspective. This qualitative study conducted on 8 survivors living in Hatay revealed the multifaceted effects of the earthquake on individuals. The emotional experiences of the participants during the earthquake, their perceptions of their pre-disaster preparations, and the effects of the earthquake on their outlook on life were analysed through in-depth interviews. The findings show that the earthquake is not only limited to physical damage but also profoundly affects emotional, social, and cognitive levels. The study emphasises the importance of emotional support, education and information programs in terms of disaster management and community preparedness and offers recommendations to ensure that communities are better prepared for future disasters. |
