摘要

健康信息素养(Health Information Literacy, HIL)影响着个体对健康相关问题的理解和决策。在巴基斯坦这样的国家,已婚妇女是家庭成员健康决定的主要贡献者,妇女在家庭生活中的作用非常重要。在大多数家庭中,妇女负责挑选食物、做饭、管理家务,包括打扫卫生等。已婚职业妇女在家庭和工作场所都发挥着不可或缺的作用。本研究采用调查研究设计和方便的抽样技术,对巴基斯坦拉合尔两所著名大学的213名已婚职业妇女的日常健康信息素养(EHIL)进行了探讨。研究结果显示,大多数已婚职业妇女(平均3.57)对健康相关信息的来源非常了解。62%的受访者更倾向于使用对抗疗法进行医疗。此外,38%的女性不了解与健康相关的术语。人们注意到,年龄、教育程度、工作性质、出生地、核心家庭制度和教育环境是影响EHIL水平的重要人口因素。

Measuring Everyday Health Information Literacy: A Survey of Pakistani Married Working Women
Abstract Health Information Literacy (HIL) influences the decision making of individuals towards the understanding of health-related matters. Married women are the major contributors to family members’ health decisions in a country like Pakistan, where the role of women in family life is very significant. In most families, women are responsible for food selection, cooking, management of the home, including cleanliness etc. Married working women have an integral role both at home and workplace. The current study explores the everyday health information literacy (EHIL) of 213 married working women using a survey research design with a convenient sampling technique from two prominent universities of Lahore, Pakistan. The study’s findings reveal that most of the married working women (3.57 mean value) are well-aware of the sources from where the health-related information can be obtained. Sixty-two percent of the respondents prefer using allopathic healthcare methods for medical treatment. Moreover, 38 percent of women do not understand health-related terminologies. It has been noted that age, education, nature of the job, birthplace, nuclear family system, and educational environment are the significant demographic factors that contribute towards the levels of EHIL.
