Bu araştırma bireylerin elektronik ortamlarda yer alan sağlıkla ilgili bilgilere erişme, bunları anlama ve yorumlama yeterliliklerine yönelik elektronik sağlık okuryazarlık düzeylerinin belirlenmesi amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Tanımlayıcı tipte olan çalışmada örneklem seçimine gidilmemiş olup, 2018 Kasım ayında kartopu örnekleme yöntemiyle çalışmaya katılmayı gönüllü olarak kabul eden 396 kişi ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmada, sağlık alanında bilgi taraması yapan bireylerin elektronik sağlık okuryazarlık düzeyini belirlemek için Norman ve Skinner (2006) tarafından geliştirilen Tamer Gencer (2017) tarafından Türkçe’ye uyarlanarak geçerlilik ve güvenilirlik çalışması yapılan e-sağlık okuryazarlık ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Toplanan veriler SPSS 20.00 programı ile analiz edilmiştir. Veriler normal dağılım göstermediğinden non-parametrik testler uygulanmıştır. Araştırmaya katılan bireylerin %61’i sağlıkları hakkında karar verirken interneti yararlı bulmakta, %56’sı ise internette sağlık kaynaklarına erişebilmenin önemli olduğunu belirtmektedir. Araştırmada bireylerin e-sağlık okuryazarlığı puan ortalaması 3,55 olarak belirlenmiştir. Cinsiyet ile e-sağlık okuryazarlık düzeyi arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir farklılık bulunmuş olup kadınların erkeklere göre e-sağlık okuryazarlık düzeyinin daha yüksek olduğu tespit edilmiştir.
This research was carried out with the aim of determining the levels of electronic health literature for individuals’ ability to access, understand and interpret health information in electronic media. The study in the identifying type did not go to sample selection, and in November 2018 it was done with 396 people who voluntarily agreed to participate in the study using the cartridge sample method. The study used the e-health literature scale conducted by Tamer Gencer (2017) developed by Norman and Skinner (2006) to determine the level of electronic health literature of individuals who scan information in the field of health, adapted to the Turkish, validity and reliability study. The data collected was analyzed with the SPSS 20.00 program. Non-parametric tests have been performed since the data showed no normal distribution. 61% of respondents found that internet is useful, while 56% said that it is important to have access to health resources on the internet. The study found that the average e-health reading score of individuals was 3.55. There has been a statistically significant difference between gender and e-health reading levels, and it has been found that women have a higher level of e-health reading than men.
This research was carried out to determine the literacy levels of individuals in terms of their ability to access, understand and interpret health related information in electronic environment. The sample selection was not conducted in this descriptive study, and in November 2018, 396 people who accepted voluntarily to participate in the study with the snowball sampling method were included in the study. In order to determine the literacy level of the individuals who search the information in the field of health, the e-health literacy scale was used which was adapted to Turkish by Tamer Gencer (2017) developed by Norman and Skinner (2006). Data were analyzed with SPSS 20.00 program. Since the data were not distributed normally, non-parametric tests were applied. 61% of the individuals who participated in the study found the internet useful in making a decision about their health and 56% stated that it was important to have access to health resources on the internet. The mean score of e-health literacy of the individuals was determined as 3,55. A statistically significant difference was found between gender and e-health literacy level and women were found to have higher levels of e-health literacy than men
