The sampling method is purposive sampling. The Spearman rank correlation test was used for data analysis with a significant level (α) = 0,05.

Results: The Spearman Rank test correlation indicates that there is a significant correlation between attitude and the mitigation of floods (p = 0,000 and r = 0,546).
