Study Notes

Introduction

  • Recurrent fire incidents in Barangay Addition Hills, Mandaluyong City, pose significant risks to community safety.
  • Proximity of structures exacerbates fire spread.
  • Frequency of incidents, including events on February 12, 2023, and April 29, 2024, raised concerns.
  • Incidents resulted in property damage, loss of life, and displacement of families.
  • Effective fire safety awareness and prevention measures are needed (DROMIC Administrator, 2024).
  • Despite proactive government efforts (fire safety regulations and community outreach), a gap exists in resident awareness of fire safety issues.
  • Residents lack understanding of common fire causes (e.g., electrical malfunctions, cooking accidents, improper flammable material disposal), as well as available prevention resources.
  • This lack of knowledge is detrimental, especially in densely populated areas.

Theoretical Framework

  • Behaviorism (Skinner, 1953) - Behaviors are strengthened by rewards/penalties.
  • Fire safety behaviors (e.g., evacuating during fire drills, maintaining safety equipment) gain strength when reinforced positively (local government officials giving commendations).
  • Classical Conditioning (Pavlov, 1927) - Repeated exposure to fire-related cues (alarms, fire visuals) can associate protection behaviors.
  • Protection Motivation Theory (PMT) - Addresses cognitive and emotional factors in fire safety behaviors.
  • Percieved severity, susceptibility, response efficacy, and self-efficacy influence fire safety actions.
  • Understanding fire safety behaviors requires considering both external influences (rewards, drills) and internal factors (risk perception, confidence).

Conceptual Framework

  • Mixed method approach combines qualitative (experiences, perceptions) and quantitative (data, surveys) research.
  • Study will explore fire safety awareness levels of residents in Addition Hills.
  • Qualitative research will identify underlying factors for generating rich data.
  • Quantitative data will be used to measure awareness levels.
  • Explanatory sequential method will ascertain the effects of fire incidents on awareness.
  • Study will investigate gaps in government response to fire incidents.

Assumptions of the Study

  • Residents of Barangay Addition Hills have varying levels of fire safety consciousness.
  • External (fire drills, rewards) and internal (risk perception, self-efficacy) factors influence fire safety behaviors.
  • Residents' levels of awareness relate to their demographics (age, sex, and years of residency).

Statement of the Problem

  • Study seeks to assess fire safety awareness and preparedness of residents in Brgy. Addition Hills.
  • Demographics, awareness levels, and government initiatives will be examined.
  • Identify factors affecting fire safety awareness, and provide recommendations for community improvement.
  • Analyze fire demographics for the area (age, sex, years of residency).
  • Evaluate residents' awareness of fire incidents, programs, and strategies.
  • Investigate gender and residency correlation to fire safety awareness.
  • Assess government fire safety initiatives effectiveness.
  • Determine resident perceptions regarding fire safety issues and risks.
  • Gather recommendations to improve community fire safety measures.

Scope and Limitations

  • Population: Metro Manila (12 million people, 1.21% annual increase).
  • Study focuses on Barangay Addition Hills, Mandaluyong City (previous fire incidents).
  • Study will emphasize fire safety awareness and behaviors.
  • Avoid deep technical focus on fire prevention systems.
  • Concentrate on human factors in fire safety (awareness, behavior, community involvement).

Significance of the Study

  • Deeper understanding of how local government efforts influence fire safety.
  • Assess how demographics and awareness influence how residents use fire safety programs.
  • Provide guidance to local policymakers, disaster management agencies.
  • Develop targeted solutions to improve fire safety awareness in the community.
  • Identify barriers for effective government action.
  • Guidance on how to create better fire safety awareness programs.
  • Guide future studies on fire safety and community resilience.

Definitions of Terms

  • Fire Suppression System - Systems designed to extinguish and prevent fire spread.
  • Casualty - A person injured or killed in a fire incident.
  • Resource Allocation - Allocation of resources assigned to respond in an emergency.
  • Response Time - Time taken from when a fire incident is reported to when responders arrive.
