- Short description of contents:
- In light of their potential for learning and engagement, using technology-based programs can be particularly relevant to enhance children’s emotional compe-tence, also in relation to traumatic events such as disasters. Some studies investi-gated the efficacy of technology-based interventions fostering this ability, focus-ing on its different components, with different populations, and using different designs, but they did not relate specifically to disasters such as earthquakes. Nev-ertheless, in everyday life knowledge on earthquakes can be promoted through the use of mobile applications. We searched electronically all the applications pre-sent within the Google Play Store, identifying 20 applications on earthquake pre-vention. None of them was specifically focused on earthquake-related emotional contents, but some of them included some emotional elements. Therefore, to fill in the gaps in the current psychological literature, we developed a web application to promote earthquake-related emotional knowledge, to be tested in the future ac-cording to the standards of evidence-based research.
