Relating health information literacy self-efficacy to information technology use and health status : a large-scale study among Chinese undergraduates. Canadian Journal of Information and Library Science, 44(1), 38-69. https://dx.doi.org/10.5206/cjilsrcsib.v44i1.11012 | Journal: | Canadian Journal of Information and Library Science | Abstract: | The purpose of this paper is to relate individuals’ health information literacy (HIL) self-efficacy to their information technology (IT) use and health status. Using a large-scale field survey with 6,160 valid respondents from undergraduates in a Chinese university, we found that individuals’ HIL self-efficacy was significantly related to some socio-demographics and lifestyle features, IT use, and health status. Meanwhile, some socio-demographics and lifestyle features and health status help identify low HIL self-efficacy individuals, while moderate daily IT use may improve HIL self-efficacy. Theoretical and practical implications, as well as limitations and future work, are also discussed. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/151059 | ISSN: | 1195-096X | DOI: | 10.5206/cjilsrcsib.v44i1.11012 | Schools: | Wee Kim Wee School of Communication and Information | Organisations: | Nanjing Agricultural University Wuhan University |
