Background.
Despite the large number of studies assessing health literacy, little research has been conducted with young adults.
Since health literacy is related to the setting in which health information is provided, our study aim was to measure health literacy competencies in a sample of university students and to evaluate the relationships between these competencies and their university health education.
Methods.
A total of 912 university students (aged 18–24 years) completed the 47-item European Health Literacy Survey Questionnaire (HLS-EU-Q47).
Results.
Perceived difficulties with health information were related to gender, with male students reporting significantly lower health literacy scores.
Studying more health education-related subjects was associated with a higher health literacy competency, due to these students’ higher rates of accessing and understanding health information in the health promotion domain.
Conclusion.
Health literacy among young adult university students is insufficient.
The subjects they study are related to their university health education; in particular, the number of health-related subjects they study is positively related to students’ health promotion domain-based competencies.
