Abstract
本研究旨在探討成年網路使用者之網路健康素養與健康促進生活型態之間的關係，並加入性別、年齡、教育程度，以及自覺健康狀況、健康資訊搜尋行為等，分析這些變項與網路健康素養、健康促進生活型態的相關性。以20歲以上使用網路之成年人作為研究對象，蒐集其個人背景資料、健康資訊搜尋行為、自覺健康狀況、網路健康素養量表、健康促進生活型態中文簡式量表等作為研究工具，並採用便利性抽樣，以網路問卷進行調查，總共回收有效問卷493份。主要研究結果如下：一、研究對象具有中上程度的網路健康素養能力，採取健康促進生活型態的情況界於「偶爾如此」與「時常如此」之間；二、20～29歲之網路健康素養平均得分顯著高於50～59歲，60歲以上的健康促進生活型態量表平均得分顯著高於30～39歲，而教育程度、自覺健康狀況均與網路健康素養、健康促進生活型態量表平均得分呈現正向相關；三、網路健康素養與健康促進生活型態具有顯著正相關；四、年齡、教育程度、自覺健康狀況、健康資訊搜尋行為、網路健康素養能顯著預測整體健康促進生活型態。本研究建議，可著重加強網路健康素養以助於達成健康促進生活型態的落實，以及未來可考慮進行介入性研究，驗證網路健康素養介入教育對於健康促進生活型態的影響。
This study investigated the association between eHealth literacy and health-promoting lifestyles among adult Internet users. Factors including gender, age, education level, perceived health status, and health information seeking behaviors were also examined. Study sample came from participants over the age of 20 who use the Internet. A total of 493 participants were recruited using a self-administrated online questionnaire. Sociodemographics, perceived health status, health information seeking behaviors were assessed. The eHealth Literacy Scale (eHEALS) and the Short-form Chinese Health Promoting Lifestyle Profile (HPLP-S) were used. Results: (1) The study participants reported moderate to high level of eHealth literacy and moderate level of health-promoting lifestyles; (2) Study participants who were with higher education level, perceiving good health status, and with higher frequency of health information seeking behaviors demonstrated better eHealth literacy and health-promoting lifestyles; (3) The score of eHEALS was positively associated with the score of HPLP-S; (4) Age, education level, perceived health status, health information seeking behaviors, and eHealth literacy were predictors of the overall health-promoting lifestyles. Findings suggest the interventions on eHealth literacy to promote healthy lifestyles. In addition, the effectiveness of these interventions should be verified in future research.
