The agent-host-environment model states that disease results...

A model is a theoretical way to understand a concept or an idea. Models can overcome barriers to health regardless of diverse economic and cultural backgrounds. In addition, models make the task easier by providing different ways to approach complex issues. There are two major health promotion models: the health belief model and the health promotion model.

Area of Science:

  • Adolescent Health
  • Digital Health Literacy
  • Health Education

Background:

  • Adolescence is critical for lifelong health, with digital health information heavily influencing well-being.
  • Adolescents require digital health literacy (DHL) to critically evaluate online health information and navigate digital environments.
  • Limited educational resources exist for improving DHL, and few involve adolescents in their design.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the co-design approach for developing an educational resource aimed at enhancing adolescents' digital health literacy.

Main Methods:

  • 27 adolescents (12-17 years) participated in 4 co-design workshops.
  • Participant perspectives on DHL and resource design were collected and analyzed.
  • Content analysis informed the development of the educational resource.

Main Results:

  • Adolescents recognized the benefits and relevance of digital health information but were aware of misinformation.
  • Key themes identified included ease of access, personal/social factors, information overload, and anonymity.
  • The co-designed educational resource received positive initial feedback with suggestions for improvement.

Conclusions:

  • The co-design approach successfully incorporated adolescent perspectives into a functional educational resource.
  • Adolescent insights guided the creation of targeted content and engaging formats for improving DHL.
  • Co-design is a promising and empowering method for developing interventions to enhance adolescent digital health literacy.
