HUBUNGAN PENGETAHUAN DAN STRATEGI ADAPTASI MASYARAKAT TERHADAP BANJIR LUAPAN DI PERMUKIMAN DUSUN GENTENGAN, DESA PULOLOR, KECAMATAN JOMBANG, KABUPATEN JOMBANG

The Relationship Between Knowledge and Community Adaptation Strategies to Overlow Floods in Gentengan Hall, Pulolor Village, Jombang District, Jombang Regency

Abstract

Abstrak
Perubahan iklim memunculkan berbagai bencana salah satunya bencana banjir. Indonesia
menjadi salah satu negara yang sering mengalami bencana banjir luapan, salah satunya di Dusun
Gentengan, Desa Pulolor, Kecamatan Jombang, Kabupaten Jombang. Banjir luapan di Dusun
Gentengan terjadi hampir setiap tahun saat musim hujan tiba. Banjir terjadi karena meluapnya debit
air Sungai Sekunder Gude Ploso yang melewati wilayah dusun, diperparah dengan kondisi topografis
wilayah yang relatif lebih rendah dibandingkan wilayah sungai dan sekitarnya. Penelitian ini
menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan metode survei eksplanatori. Sampel penelitian berjumlah
75 responden dengan margin of error 10%, pengambilan sampel dengan menggunakan teknik simple
random sampling. Data yang didapat dianalisis dengan menggunakan analisis deskriptif dan uji
Korelasi Pearson. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Masyarakat memiliki pemahaman mengenai
banjir dengan nilai rata-rata yang baik 88,5 serta strategi adaptasi yang dilakukan masyarakat
mayoritas berupa adaptasi non-struktural seperti membersihkan saluran, menyimpan nomor darurat,
dan mengamankan barang elektronik. Selain itu hasil uji Korelasi Pearson nilai signifikan 0,069 >
0,05 dan nilai korelasi sebesar 0,211, penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa tidak terdapat hubungan yang
signifikan antara pengetahuan dan strategi adaptasi yang dilakukan Masyarakat dalam menghadapi
banjir luapan, hubungan yang terjalin antara keduanya sangatlah lemah.
Kata Kunci: Pengetahuan, strategi adaptasi, banjir

Abstract
Climate change has given rise to various disasters, one of which is flooding. Indonesia is one
of the countries that often experiences overflow floods, one of which is in Gentengan Hamlet, Pulolor
Village, Jombang District, Jombang Regency. Overflow floods in Gentengan Hamlet occur almost
every year when the rainy season arrives. The flood occurred due to the overflow of water from the
Gude Ploso Secondary River which passed through the hamlet area, aggravated by the relatively
lower topographic conditions of the area than the river area and its surroundings. This study uses a
quantitative approach with an explanatory survey method. The research sample amounted to 75
respondents with a margin of error of 10%, sampling using simple random sampling techniques. The
data obtained were analyzed using descriptive analysis and the Pearson Correlation test. The results of
the study showed that the community had an understanding of flooding with a good average score of
88.5 and the adaptation strategies carried out by the majority of the community in the form of
non-structural adaptations such as cleaning channels, storing emergency numbers, and securing
electronic goods. In addition, the results of the person correlation test had a significant value of 0.069
> 0.05 and a correlation value of 0.211, this study showed that there was no significant relationship
between knowledge and adaptation strategies carried out by the community in dealing with floods, the
relationship between the two was very weak.
