“…In this case, the parents' level of education influenced the acquisition of knowledge, which may have influenced the care delivered to their children (21) . Other studies (22)(23) corroborate that few years of education is a risk factor for the worsening of childhood asthma.…”

Method: Methodological study in which 216 parents/guardians of children with asthma participated. A construct validation (factor analysis and test of hypothesis by comparison of contrasted groups) and an analysis of reliability in terms of homogeneity (Cronbach's alpha) and stability (test-retest) were carried out. Results: Exploratory factor analysis proved suitable for the Brazilian version of the scale (Kaiser-Meyer-Olkim index of 0.879 and Bartlett's sphericity with p < 0.001). The correlation matrix in factor analysis suggested the removal of item 7 from the scale. Cronbach's alpha of the fi nal scale, with 16 items, was 0.92. Conclusion: The Brazilian version of Self-effi cacy and their child's level of asthma control presented psychometric properties that confi rmed its validity and reliability.

“…Four studies showed that parents with limited HL are associated with worse asthma control. 8,13,14 One study indicated that parents with low HL are associated with worse asthma control, as rated by health care providers (p Z 0.007) and children (p Z 0.013). 8 Shone et al observed that parents with limited HL are more likely to perceive their children's health to be fair or poor and report they worry "very much more" than other parents do about their children's health.…”

Health literacy (HL) is a key factor influencing asthma management outcomes and has primarily been focused on adult patients. The relationship between children's HL and asthma is unclear, and several research gaps are present in the direct assessment of children's HL. In this study, a systematic review of the relevant literature was conducted to elucidate the relationship between HL and asthma among children. An electronic database search was performed to obtain studies published between January 2005-August 2016. Inclusion and exclusion criteria and quality appraisal were applied to include only studies that would aid assessment of the relationship between HL and asthma among children. This review identified 13 such studies, most of which have explored the outcomes of the relationship between parental HL and children's asthma; the review revealed that having parents with low HL is associated with poor asthma control and increased health care utilization. However, children's HL is yet to be completely understood, and few studies have been conducted on the direct assessment of children's HL. In addition, our review found that, although only a few instruments have been developed to specifically assess children's HL, these were unsatisfactory and did not completely include the components of HL, particularly those specific to patients with asthma. The selection of controls for potential variables was different, and the variations in measuring instruments and research settings posed difficulties in the literature review. Additional longitudinal studies or structural equation modeling tests are required to identify the causal effects of HL and relative outcome variables.

“…Health literacy is the ability to obtain, process and understand basic health information and communicate within the healthcare environment as well as the services required for making appropriate health decisions (Institute of Medicine ; Zarcadoolas, Pleasant, & Greer, ). Health literacy is a reliable indicator of the outcomes of self‐management programmes and health education (Brigham, Goldenberg, Stolfi, Mueller, & Forbis, ; Harrington, Zhang, Magruder, Bailey, & Gerald, ). The effectiveness of health education materials may be increased by emphasising health‐literacy‐related aspects (Garnweidner‐Holme et al., ; McInnes & Haglund, ).…”
