- Abstract
This study tried to learn health literacy of college students and analyze the influence factors so that we could improve health. Stratified random cluster sampling was employed to recruit 1460 college students in 3 universities in Shandong among which Health Literacy Questionnaires were distributed. 64.4% of students had satisfactory health literacy. Grade, specialty, course of health education, time of health education outside classroom, health information acquisition capacity, health information evaluation capacity and health information practice capacity in health-related activities were the main factors affecting the health literacy level of students. The health literacy level of college students in the three universities is higher than the overall level of college students in China. The possession rate of basic knowledge and ideas is low, so it is necessary to establish the academy health education model to enhance the individual's acceptance of health education, distinguish the value needs and cognitive structure of the educational objects, increase the times of participating in health education and practice activities to improve the acceptance ability of educational objects and the coverage of health education, and pay attention to the cultivation of electronic health literacy to further improve the level of health literacy.
