“…Also, contrary to existing literature that found associations between eHealth literacy and behavior (Britt et al, 2015;Kim & Lee, 2015;Mitsutake et al, 2016), this study did not yield similar results when predicting intentions to engage in dietary and fitness behaviors. Although the study participants reported moderately high confidence in their ability to seek, assess, and apply online health information, this did not translate to behavioral intention.…”

“…Vast research has also demonstrated the associations of these informationrelated variables with behavior. eHealth literacy, for instance, was found to be associated with colorectal cancer screening (Mitsutake, Shibata, Ishii, & Oka, 2012), infection prevention (Kim & Lee, 2015), physical exercise, and eating a balanced diet (Mitsutake, Shibata, Ishii, & Oka, 2016). Likewise, with OHIB, a study among pregnant women showed that almost all the participants used the Internet for health information, half of whom reported a decrease in their intake of sweetened beverages and fatty foods, and an increase in their participation in physical activities and consumption of fruits and vegetables (Huberty, Dinkel, Beets, & Coleman, 2013).…”

First of all, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my supervisor, Dr. May O. Lwin, for her invaluable guidance, patience, and encouragement during every stage of this study. Her support has made every step of my postgraduate journey possible. Thank you to Dr. Shubert Foo and Dr. Kim Hye Kung for their instrumental guidance in making this paper worthy of other people's readership. I would also like to thank my parents, sister, and Jeremy for their unending love and support, not just in my academic pursuits, but in every aspect of my life. Everything I do is possible because of them and I dedicate all my efforts to them. I also extend my appreciation to my friends who have surely made stressful moments less so with their unswerving support and humor. I would also like to acknowledge the invaluable support the University of the Philippines has kindly extended to my study. All the students and faculty members, especially Prof. Ei Narvaez, have made this study possible. And finally, I want to thank the school for the opportunity and for the wonderful and enriching experience I will cherish for life.

“…Compared to individuals with HL-HIO, individuals with LL-HIO were 82% more likely to have a poor knowledge of antibiotic use. Previous studies have shown the effects of HIO on the adoption of behaviours, such as prevention against infection with the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome and on the use of health applications [ 25 , 26 ], but the association between HIO and health knowledge is novel. We have further elucidated the profiles of individuals with LL-HIO for targeted educational interventions.…”

Background: Poor knowledge of antibiotic use drives poor antibiotic practices, but little is known about the influence of health information orientation (HIO) on knowledge of antibiotic use in the general public. Methods: We conducted a nationally-representative population-wide cross-sectional study (November 2021–January 2022), on a proportionately stratified random sample of 2004 Singapore residents aged ≥21 years. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to assess the association between HIO and knowledge of antibiotic use. Results: Forty percent of respondents had low-levels of HIO (LL-HIO); they tended to be younger, not currently married, and did not have family/friends working in the healthcare sector. Respondents with LL-HIO (aOR 1.82, 95% CI 1.32–2.51, p < 0.001) were 82% more likely to have poor knowledge of antibiotic use. In particular, older adults aged ≥50 years with LL-HIO (aOR 1.81, 95% CI [1.32–2.51], p < 0.001) were much more likely to have poor knowledge than their HL-HIO counterparts. They were also less likely to use the Internet to seek health information and had poor eHealth efficacy. Conclusion: LL-HIO is independently associated with poor knowledge of antibiotic use. Educational strategies on antibiotic use should disseminate a consistent message through both online and offline platforms, involving traditional and non-traditional healthcare and non-healthcare influencers.
