Synthesized data narratively against the eight ICN competency domains.

Response-phase and preparedness competencies were reported in 13 and 12 studies, respectively.
Competency levels were moderate, with mean scores ranging from 2.5 to 3.4 out of 5; notable gaps in psychosocial resilience and recovery-phase competencies.
