Understanding The Knowledge, Beliefs, And Practices Of Samareños On Red Tide Phenomenon

This study examines how factors like age, gender, marital status, education, household size, income, and occupation impact what people know and believe about red tide and how they respond to it. We collected data from people in Samar to understand this. We found that some factors, like income and marital status, are linked to a better understanding of red tide. However, factors like age, gender, household size, occupation, and education don't seem to make a big difference.We used a mix of methods, including numbers and discussions with groups of people. These discussions brought up important ideas, like the need for fair support for all groups affected by events like red tide, cooperation between local government and agencies, and better public education about red tide. This shows that working together, giving help when it's needed, and making informed choices are key to dealing with red tide.This study helps us understand how demographics affect what people know and do about red tide. It gives us ideas for ways to help people deal with red tide better. We suggest more research to understand why some factors matter more than others and how we can use these ideas to improve how we respond to red tide
