AIMS
This study investigated the association between literacy skills and self-reported health among Danish ( n = 7284), Finnish ( n = 5454), Norwegian ( n = 4942) and Swedish ( n = 4555) participants aged 16-65 years.
METHODS
Logistic regression models were used to assess the association between literacy skills and self-reported health after adjusting for sex, age and educational level.
RESULTS
Nordic participants aged 16-65 years with literacy skills at the lowest level reported sub-optimal health more often (28-37%) than those with literacy skills at the highest level (7-9%). After adjusting for sex, age and educational level, the likelihood of reporting sub-optimal health was 1.99-3.24 times as high for those with literacy skills at the lowest level as for those with literacy skills at the highest level.
CONCLUSIONS
These results suggest that poor literacy skills increase the likelihood of experiencing poor health in the Nordic countries, even after controlling for educational level.
目的
本研究调查了年龄在16至65岁之间的丹麦（n = 7284）、芬兰（n = 5454）、挪威（n = 4942）和瑞典（n = 4555）参与者的读写能力与自我报告健康状况之间的关联。
方法
在对性别、年龄和教育水平进行调整后，使用逻辑回归模型评估读写能力与自我报告健康状况之间的关联。
结果
北欧16至65岁读写能力处于最低水平的参与者报告健康状况欠佳的频率（28 - 37%）高于读写能力处于最高水平的参与者（7 - 9%）。在对性别、年龄和教育水平进行调整后，读写能力处于最低水平的参与者报告健康状况欠佳的可能性是读写能力处于最高水平参与者的1.99至3.24倍。
结论
这些结果表明，即使在控制了教育水平之后，读写能力差也会增加北欧国家健康状况不佳的可能性。
