Pahang, located in the East Coast Region, is particularly vulnerable to severe floods, especially during the monsoon season. Predicting the flood situation in Pahang is challenging as it can unexpectedly affect previously unaffected areas. If the residents of Pahang are conscious of their susceptibility to floods, they are more inclined to make necessary preparations. This study examined the relationship between attitude (ATT), subjective norms (SN), perceived behavioral control (PBC), perceived susceptibility (SUC), and flood preparedness intention (INT) among 200 Pahang residents. An extension of the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) was developed and tested using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) technique with Partial Least Squares (PLS). A positive relationship was found between the independent variables and dependent variable except for perceived behavioral control.
