Self Efficacy Associated with Maternal Resilience in Managing the Impact of Annual Flood Disaster During The COVID-19 Pandemic

Abstract

Background and Purpose: The flood disaster in Indonesia has increased over the last three years. The impact of the flood was felt by mothers in Sukorejo Village, both socially, environmentally, and psychologically. The results of the preliminary study found that mothers were less active in flood management because they felt helpless and unsure of their abilities. Methods: This research is a descriptive correlational study. The data collection technique is purposive sampling with 93 respondents. The dependent variable is maternal resilience, and the independent variable is self-efficacy. The instruments used were the Generally Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES) and the Connor-David Resilience Scale (CDRIS) questionnaires. The data obtained will be analyzed using the Spearman rank correlation test. Results: The mother's self-efficacy in Sukorejo Village is very high. The resilience of mothers in Sukorejo Village is low. There is a positive correlation between self-efficacy and maternal resilience in Sukorejo Village, Karangbinangun District, Lamongan Regency (p<0.005; r=0.414). Conclusion: The annual flood disaster in Sukorejo Village is due to the confidence factor. Mothers are not optimal at controlling negative emotions in themselves when dealing with the consequences of floods, even though they have good confidence in their abilities.
