At least one third of the US population suffers from limited health literacy, which has been linked to poorer health status, higher costs, and individuals who are socioeconomically disadvantaged. However, research and the development of theoretical frameworks to study health literacy have only recently begun to occur. The purpose of this article is to describe theoretical frameworks that have either been used or may be used to guide health literacy research and to identify implications for nursing research and practice related to an adaptation of a health literacy framework developed specifically for conducting research in populations with universal access to healthcare.
至少三分之一的美国人口存在健康素养有限的问题，这与较差的健康状况、更高的成本以及社会经济地位不利的个体有关。然而，研究以及用于研究健康素养的理论框架的开发直到最近才开始。本文的目的是描述已被使用或可能被用于指导健康素养研究的理论框架，并确定与改编专门为在普遍享有医疗保健的人群中开展研究而开发的健康素养框架相关的护理研究及实践的意义。
