The purpose of this study was to examine perceived flood risk awareness and preparedness in terms of levels of flood risk preparedness knowledge and training experience differences. A total of 414 high school students who lived in flooding areas in Phetchaburi province was gathered for data collection through flood risk preparedness test and perceived flood risk awareness and preparedness questionnaire. Analysis of independent samples t-test indicated no statistically significant difference in perceived flood risk awareness and preparedness knowledge between participants with different levels of knowledge (t = .879, Sig = .380). On the other hand, findings revealed a statistically significant difference in perceived flood risk awareness and preparedness between different groups of training experience (t = 2.315, Sig = .021). Further recommendations and research implications were also discussed.
