Married college students in Iran show sufficient sexual health literacy, but factors like economic status and faculty influence it. Accessing sexual health information via social media and the internet positively impacts literacy levels.

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Medical Education
  • Sociology

Background:

  • Sexual health literacy (SHL) is crucial for informed decision-making regarding sexual health.
  • Understanding SHL levels and influencing factors among college students is vital for targeted health interventions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the sexual health literacy level among married college students at Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences.
  • To identify factors associated with sexual health literacy in this population.

Main Methods:

  • A web-based cross-sectional online study was conducted from January to November 2020.
  • Data were collected from married college students using a questionnaire including sociodemographic, clinical information, and the Sexual Health Literacy for Iranian Adults (SHELIA) scale.
  • Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were employed to determine factors related to SHL.

    • Main Results:

    • The study included 277 male and 123 female students, with 66.1-88% demonstrating sufficient sexual health literacy.
    • 20.5% of participants had limited sexual health literacy.
    • Multivariate analysis revealed that lower economic status and faculty were associated with decreased SHL, while using social media, internet searches, and higher educational levels were associated with increased SHL.

    Conclusions:

    • Medical sciences students in Iran play a key role in sexual health education.
    • Integrated and comprehensive SHL promotion programs are recommended for this demographic.
    • Government agencies and stakeholders should collaborate to develop and implement effective SHL policies and programs.
