“…Today, health care is characterized by some intricacies (Erdoğan and Araman 2017 ). Given the growing demands for complex health information processing in the modern society, HL is becoming vital to help individuals assume responsibilities for their own health behaviors, as well as those related to their family members, and the entire society (Niu et al 2021 ).…”

“…Given that individuals’ PHBs have been fully examined within the context of public health crises (Niu et al 2021 ) and understanding the factors closely associated with such behaviors is of utmost importance (Chang et al 2020 ), recognizing health beliefs and HL, as the significant motives for public health promotion, have been critical topics in scientific research (Erdoğan and Araman 2017 ). Against this background, the present study aimed to evaluate the predictive role of the HBM constructs and HL in shaping the COVID-19 PHBs among adolescents.…”

Aim The present study aimed to evaluate the predictive role of the Health Belief Model (HBM) constructs and health literacy (HL) in shaping the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) preventive health behaviors (PHBs) among adolescents. Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted with 503 adolescent girls and boys, randomly selected via cluster sampling. For this purpose, the data were collected online through four research tools, including the demographic-clinical characteristics information questionnaire, the COVID-19 PHB Scale based on HBM, and the Health Literacy Scale for COVID-19. The data analysis was then performed by regression analysis along with the structural equation modeling (SEM), considering the significance level of 0.05. Results The regression analysis results demonstrated that following the one-unit increase in the values of self-efficacy and cues to action, the COVID-19 PHBs elevated by 0.063 and 0.078 units, respectively. In addition, the COVID-19 PHBs subsided by 0.018 with the rise in the value of perceived barriers ( P < 0.001). According to the path analysis, the direct path from the COVID-19-related HL to the COVID-19 PHBs (B = 0.097, β = 0.087, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.005 to 0.189) was significant. Furthermore, the indirect path from the COVID-19-related HL to the COVID-19 PHBs through perceived susceptibility (B = 0.017, β = 0.015, 95% CI = 0.001 to 0.032), perceived barriers (B = 0.029, β = 0.026, 95% CI = 0.004 to 0.055), self-efficacy (B = 0.094, β = 0.084, 95% CI = 0.031 to 0.156), and cues to action (B = 0.153, β = 0.137, 95% CI = 0.092 to 0.215) was significant. Conclusion In keeping with the study results, it is essential to take some effective measures to boost the HBM constructs and HL among adolescents to improve their PHBs during pandemics such as COVID-19.

Amaç: Bu çalışma, katılımcıların sağlık okuryazarlığı ile sağlık algısı düzeylerinin ve demografik farklılıkların iki değişken üzerindeki etkilerinin tespit edilmesi ve bu iki kavram arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Araştırmada Bayık ve Aras (2017) tarafından Türkçeye uyarlanan “Sağlık Okuryazarlığı Ölçeği” ve Kadıoğlu ve Yıldız (2012) tarafından Türkçeye uyarlanan “Sağlık Algısı Ölçeği” kullanılmıştır. 372 katılımcı aracılığı ile elde edilen veriler SPSS (ver. 24.0) istatistik paket programı ile parametrik testler yapılarak değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular: Katılımcıların genel sağlık okuryazarlığı düzeyinin (107.37±13.11) orta üstü ve genel sağlık algısının (53.07±7.19) orta düzeyde olduğu belirlenmiştir. Bazı demografik değişkenlerin sağlık okuryazarlığı ve sağlık algısı bakımından farklılık oluşturduğu tespit edilmiştir. Sağlık okuryazarlığı ile sağlık algısı düzeyleri arasında istatistiksel açıdan anlamlı, orta düzeyde ve pozitif yönlü bir ilişki tespit edilmiştir (r= 0.458; p
