| dc.description.abstract | Public Participation as the process of people's self-reliance is basically an
incessant activity which is caused by internal and external environmental changes.
However, the fact is that the implementation of people participation often deviates
widely from its original concept.
The aim of the research was to analyze the influence of the determinant of
public participation in reducing the risk of flood disaster at Sei Rampah village, Sei
Rampah Subdistrict, Serdang Bedagai District, in 2013. The population was 1350
families suffered from flood at Sei Rampah village. The samples consisted of 93
respondents, using stratified random sampling technique. The data were gathered by
distributing questionnaires and analyzed by using univatriate, bivatriate, and
multivatriate analysis and tested by multiple linear regression tests.
The result of the research showed that there was significant correlation
between opportunity and people participation at Sei Rampah village, Serdang
Bedagai District, with the value of p=0.003 (p<0.05). There was significant
correlation between the will and people empowerment at Sei Rampah village,
Serdang Bedagai District with the value of p=0.034 (p<0.05).There was significant
correlation between competence and people empowerment at Sei Rampah village,

with people empowerment in reducing the risk of flood at Sei Rampah village,

empowerment in order to reduce the risk of flood, BPBD (Regional Disaster
Mitigation Agency) of Serdang Bedagai should socialize people participation to the
people in order to reduce the risk of flood, and the Head of Sei Rampah village
