Giriş ve Amaç: COVID-19 gibi salgın dönemlerinde bireylerin sağlık okuryazarlık düzeyleri oldukça önemlidir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, COVID-19 sürecinde sağlık okuryazarlığı ile sağlık anksiyetesi ve önleyici davranışlara uyum arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesidir.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışma tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel tiptedir. Veriler Ocak-Nisan 2021 tarihleri arasında Google Drive Form aracılığı ile toplanmıştır. Çalışma Türkiye’nin kuzey batısında şehir merkezinde yer alan dahil edilme kriterlerine uyan 428 belediye çalışanı ile yapılmıştır.Veriler, Sosyo Demografik ve Önleyici Davranışlara Uyum Formu, Sağlık Anksiyetesi Ölçeği (SAÖ) ve Türkiye Sağlık Okuryazarlığı Ölçeği (TSOY-32) ile toplanmıştır.
Bulgular: Araştırmaya katılanların yeterli sağlık okuryazarlığına sahip oldukları (35,51 ± 7,13) bulunmuştur. COVID-19 sürecinde bireylerin yeterli sağlık okuryazarlık düzeylerinin önleyici davranışlara uyum konusunda etkili olduğu gözlemlendi. Sağlık Okuryazarlığı puan ortalaması ile Sağlık anksiyetesi puan ortalamaları arasında negatif yönlü anlamlı bir korelasyon olduğu bulundu (r= -0.459, p=0.000).
Sonuç: COVID-19 döneminde özellikle birinci basamak sağlık hizmetlerinde yada halk sağlığı alanında çalışanlar tarafından verilecek sağlık okuryazarlığı eğitim ve danışmanlık hizmetleri, bireylerin sağlık anksiyetesini azaltarak önleyici davranışlara uyumu artırabilir.

Objective: Health literacy levels of individuals are very important during epidemic periods such as COVID-19. The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between adaptation to preventive behavior and health anxiety with health literacy level in the COVID-19 process.
Material and Methods: This study is a descriptive and cross-sectional study. The data were collected between January and April 2021 via Google Drive Form. The study involved 428 people who met the inclusion criteria working in a Provincial Municipality in north-west Turkey. The data were collected using Socio-demographic and compliance to preventive behavior data form, “Turkey Health Literacy Scale” and “Health Anxiety Scale”.
Results: Participants in the study were found to have adequate health literacy (35.51 ± 7.13). It was observed that the level of adequate health literacy of individuals during the COVID-19 process were effective complying with preventive behavior. It was found that there was a significant negative correlation between the health literacy score averages and the health anxiety score averages (r= -0.459, p=0.000).
Conclusion: Health literacy education and counseling services especially by those working in the field of primary health care and public health, can reduce health anxiety by increasing the adaptation of individuals to preventive behaviors during the COVID-19 period.
