“…Our finding could be explained by the use of four-items tool that show low reliability. However, our findings are consistent with findings of some studies reported a current systematic review; 50 This review showed conflicting findings of the relationship between health literacy and medication adherence and conclude that the relationship maybe is indirect and mediated or moderated by other factors. The review also concluded that variations in tools used to measure health literacy, population demographics, and cultures maybe the reason for this variation.…”

“…The review also concluded that variations in tools used to measure health literacy, population demographics, and cultures maybe the reason for this variation. 50 This study did not come without limitations; the study's cross-sectional design did not produce a causal relationship between the study variables. Hence, longitudinal studies are required to establish a causal relationship.…”

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain a global health threat, and medication adherence remains low. Medication adherence is a complex phenomenon and is affected by many factors that require investigation. Oman has limited literature examining medication adherence and influencing factors among patients with CVDs. This study examined the influence of health literacy, social support, the patient-physician relationship, and health-related quality of life on medication adherence among patients with cardiovascular diseases. Patients and Methods: This cross-sectional study used a correlation design. The study included 360 participants with CVDs. Descriptive statistics, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, and multiple regression analysis were utilized for data analyses. Results: Findings revealed that higher social support (B=0.117; p=0.033), good patient-physician relationship (B=0.124; p < 0.01), better mental health (B=0.045; p < 0.01), more bodily pain (B=0.030; p < 0.01), and unemployment (B=1.297; p < 0.01) were predictors of higher adherence. High school education and above predicted lower medication adherence (B= −1.255; p= 0.019), while health literacy was not a significant predictor of medication adherence (B= 0.061; p= 0.289). Conclusion:To improve medication adherence, healthcare providers and researchers should consider improving patients' social support, mental health, and the patient-physician relationship. In addition, patients' socioeconomic status should always be considered and examined as an influencing factor of medication adherence.

“…Another potential limitation of this study is that women made up a higher proportion of respondents than men, which could potentially affect the generalizability of the results. Further, additional information on respondent characteristics could be collected to potentially identify other factors that in uence health literacy or arise from low health literacy, such as certain diseases, body mass index, alcohol consumption, smoking, use of health services, medication adherence and others [14][15].…”

Background: The European Health Literacy Questionnaire (HLS-EU-Q47) is a self-assessment tool for standardised measurement of health literacy. Aim: To translate HLS-EU-Q47 into the Slovenian language and to investigate its reliability and validity in Slovenia. Method: HLS-EU-Q47 was translated into Slovenian, back-translated, and subjected to a pilot test. The accepted Slovenian version of the questionnaire was mailed to 2,500 randomly selected adult residents of the Republic of Slovenia. Reliability was examined using Cronbach’s alpha for the 1-, 3-, 4-, and 12-factor models addressing health literacy, three main health contexts, four health information processing competencies, and 12 combinations, respectively. Validity was explored with confirmatory factor analysis, univariate analysis, and multiple linear regression. Results: A total of 517 responses were collected (21% response rate). The highest Cronbach’s alpha was obtained for the 1-factor model (0.950), followed by the 3-, 4-, and 12-factor models. In the confirmatory factor analysis, the 12-factor model provided the most valid results (CFI 0.812; RMSEA 0.067, CI 0.065 to 0.070), followed by the 3-, 4-, and 1-factor models. In the multiple regression model, only the association between self-assessment of health and the health literacy index was statistically significant (p < 0.001). Conclusion: The Slovenian version of HLS-EU-Q47 is a reliable instrument for measuring health literacy. All models of the questionnaire showed reasonable model fit, but none fully satisfied all validity criteria. Respondents differentiated better between the three main health contexts (health care, disease prevention, and health promotion) than the four health information processing competencies (access, understand, appraise, and apply).
