“…In this study, 18.5% of parents were assessed as having low health literacy, similar to the estimate of 17% reported for a previous sample of parents of children with type 1 diabetes (Hassan & Heptulla, 2010). Although the 18.5% prevalence rate of low health literacy for the parents in this study falls within the rates of 1-29% reported for a variety of parent samples (DeWalt, Dilling, Rosenthal, & Pignone, 2007;Driessnack, Chung, Perkhounkova, & Hein, 2013;Kumar et al, 2010;Otal et al, 2012;Wittich, Mangan, Grad, Wang, & Gerald, 2007;Yin et al, 2009), it is lower than the 28.7% prevalence rate reported for a national sample of parents (Yin et al, 2009).…”
