Natural hazards are one of the destructive phenomena that pose a significant hazard to humans, property, and economy, among others. One most recurring natural is flooding, which caused by typhoons, monsoons, heavy rainfall has been main concerns Philippines in recent years. The study’s results will provide information on factors affecting flood disaster preparedness integrating Theory Planned Behavior (TPB) Protection Motivation (PMT). A total 509 individuals answered an online survey questionnaire with 52 adapted questions. Structural equation modeling (SEM) revealed risk perception (RP), media (M), personal experience (PE) had effect perceived severity (PS) vulnerability (PV), consequently affected attitude toward behavior (ATB), social norms (SN), behavioral control (PBC). It was determined ATB, SN, PBC significantly (AB), led intention follow (ITF) prevention (PP). After analyzing data, it 56.2% female respondents were said be more resilient compared males. This first study determine mitigation flood-prone areas Philippines. beneficial academicians government officials developing determining affect preparedness.
