Abstract

The article focuses on a study from the University of South-Eastern Norway that examines the integration of technology in disaster medicine education, specifically in fostering situational awareness and a disaster mindset. The research utilized a scoping review of literature from 2005 to 2025, identifying 49 relevant studies, with a significant emphasis on immersive technologies like virtual reality and artificial intelligence to enhance decision-making in disaster scenarios. The findings indicate that while most studies addressed situational awareness, there is a notable gap in research specifically targeting the disaster mindset. The study aims to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application in disaster preparedness education. [Extracted from the article]
