Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to explore the current status of digital health literacy (DHL) among Chinese college students, and to summarize and analyze the related influencing factors.
Methods: A systematic search was conducted in Web of Science, PubMed, EBSCO, Scopus, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data, and VIP databases for relevant literature published between 1 January 2006 and 30 May 2024.
Results: A total of 32 articles, with sample sizes ranging from 224 to 16,497 participants, were included in this review. The e-Health Literacy Scale was the most commonly used measurement for DHL among China college students. The level of DHL among Chinese college students was not high, which was associated with a variable of factors. Based on the social ecological model, the influencing factors at the individual level included age, gender, depression and anxiety status, self-rated health status, frequency of physical exercise, participation in health club activities, taking health courses, and attitude toward health; at the interpersonal level, the influencing factors included family income, parents' education level, family structure, and only child status; at the organizational level, influencing factors included major, grade, and interpersonal relationships; at the community level, influencing factors included hukou and place of origin.
Conclusions: The findings of this review provide valuable insights for the development of targeted health education interventions and policies to enhance DHL among Chinese college students. Future research should prioritize nationwide studies to further investigate the factors influencing DHL among Chinese college students and to develop more scientifically rigorous and effective measurement tools for DHL.
目的：本研究旨在了解我国大学生数字健康素养（digital health literacy， DHL）现状，并对相关影响因素进行总结和分析。方法：系统检索Web of Science、PubMed、EBSCO、Scopus、中国知网、万方数据、VIP等数据库2006年1月1日至2024年5月30日发表的相关文献。结果：本综述共纳入32篇文章，样本量为224 ~ 16497名受试者。电子健康素养量表是DHL在中国大学生中最常用的测量方法。中国大学生的DHL水平不高，这与多种因素有关。基于社会生态模型，个体层面的影响因素包括年龄、性别、抑郁焦虑状态、自评健康状况、体育锻炼频率、参加健身俱乐部活动、参加健康课程和健康态度；人际关系层面上，家庭收入、父母受教育程度、家庭结构、独生子女状况是影响因素；在组织层面，影响因素包括专业、年级和人际关系；在社区层面，影响因素包括户口和原籍地。结论：本综述的研究结果为制定针对性的健康教育干预措施和政策以提高中国大学生的DHL提供了有价值的见解。未来的研究应优先考虑在全国范围内开展研究，进一步调查中国大学生DHL的影响因素，并开发出更科学、严谨、有效的DHL测量工具。
