Natural Disaster Education in School: A Bibliometric Analysis with a Detailed Future Insight Overview

Abstract

<p style="text-align: justify;">In some places of the world, disasters occur virtually every day. If disasters are not properly foreseen, they may result in many fatalities. This research aims to examine the growth and pattern of literature on natural disaster education in schools. This analytical strategy combines quantitative and statistical methods to discover trends, assess quality, and track development. A total of 216 documents were chosen from the 403 documents collected. Following 2015, there was a considerable increase in four-year publications. Authors from the United States contributed to 45 papers with 37% citations and ranked first, followed by authors from Japan (31 documents; 15% citations) and Indonesia (31 documents) with rankings citations below the top 10. Most publications were published in the International Journal of Disaster Risk Reduction (12 docs; Q1 Scimago Journal Rank 1.1 (SJR 1.1)). The Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry and Allied Disciplines had the most citations (100; Q1 SJR 3.6) and was ranked first in its discipline. The existing core literature on school education on natural disasters demonstrates that this topic is developing rapidly, but with insufficient international research collaboration. Research cooperation in this area must be strengthened to better the global response to natural disaster mitigation, which should begin in schools worldwide. There is a need to widen the scope of study in this field to include natural disaster preparedness education in the school curriculum, assessments, learning media, disaster response education, and instructional designs. Finally, disaster education in schools must be addressed as soon as possible to contribute to disaster preparedness.</p>

Mathematical representation: A bibliometric mapping of the research literature (2013–2022)

“…This shows the dominance of documents from conferences compared to journals. Although several bibliometric analyses show that many authors prefer to publish journal articles (Fuad et al, 2022;Juandi et al, 2022;Saregar et al, 2022), this is not in accordance with our findings. This may be due to the difficulty of publishing Scopusindexed articles in related journals.…”

Problem Solving and Decision-Making Skills for ESD: A Bibliometric Analysis

“…A bibliometric analysis approach was employed to draw conclusions based on a collection of bibliographic data, exhibiting the structure, social, and author networks, as well as present analytical interests in a specific experimental area (Ha et al, 2020;Karakus, Ersozlu and Clark, 2019;Suprapto et al, 2021;Zupic and Čater, 2015). The approach also included the statistical analysis of published articles and their citations, to measure relevant impacts (Maditati et al, 2018;Saregar et al, 2022) and analyze gaps or emerging topics (Gao et al, 2021). In addition, bibliographical analysis implemented the relevant information obtained from online databases, enabling scientific study and a global perspective on related interest areas (Secinaro et al, 2020).…”

Control System for Quadcopter UAV based SMC-RBFNN with External Disturbance

“…Quadcopter-type UAVs are now being explored extensively because they have various advantages such as the capacity to take off and land vertically, take off and land in restricted spaces, hover in one spot, and maneuver intelligently [1,2]. UAVs have the ability to map green areas, monitor natural disasters, and be utilized for human detection [3][4][5] as well as aid in search and rescue scenarios for natural disaster victims [6,7].…”
