People with poor health literacy are those who have less knowledge about disease management and health promotion behaviors, and generally have poorer health status.
The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of qualitative components of the health website of Semnan University of Medical Sciences on the students' health literacy.
This study was performed on 529 medical and allied health students in schools affiliated to Semnan University of Medical Sciences, Iran in 2016-2017. A researcher-made questionnaire and standard questionnaire were used. Descriptive statistics and regression test were used by SPSS 19 to analyze data in significance level of 0.01.
The findings showed that there were poor relationships between communications in the health website and health literacy (R=0.265, B=0.50), between understanding of concepts in the health website and health literacy (R=0.259, B=0.38) and patient centeredness in the health website and health literacy (R=0.241, B=0.30).
It is concluded that the empowerment of students' health literacy through the University Health Department website can be realized when the health department website is used as a tool for learning and the website is much more active in social marketing in the field of health.

本研究旨在调查伊朗塞姆南医科大学健康网站的质量要素对学生健康素养的影响。
2016 - 2017年,对伊朗塞姆南医科大学附属学校的529名医科及相关健康专业学生进行了本研究。使用了研究者自行编制的问卷和标准问卷。采用SPSS 19进行描述性统计和回归检验,以0.01的显著性水平分析数据。
研究结果表明,健康网站中的沟通与健康素养之间的关系较弱(R = 0.265,B = 0.50),健康网站中概念的理解与健康素养之间的关系较弱(R = 0.259,B = 0.38),以及健康网站中的以患者为中心与健康素养之间的关系较弱(R = 0.241,B = 0.30)。
得出的结论是,当健康部门网站用作学习工具且在健康领域的社会营销中更加活跃时,通过大学健康部门网站增强学生的健康素养是可以实现的。
