This study aims to determine the relationship between adult colorectal cancer screening behaviors and health literacy levels. This cross-sectional study aims to determine the relationship between adult colorectal cancer screening behaviors and health literacy levels. Of the participants, only a small proportion had undergone this screening (9.3%). Having an intestinal disease (OR = 23) and having a relative with colorectal cancer (OR = 8) had the highest effect on colorectal screening. There were significant differences between the colorectal screening groups concerning most THLS-32 subgroup scores, including the THLS-32 total score. Health literacy affects colorectal cancer screening rates. Primary care workers, especially community health nurses, are in an ideal position to increase health literacy and thereby increase cancer screening rates.
本研究旨在确定成人结直肠癌筛查行为与健康素养水平之间的关系。这项横断面研究旨在确定成人结直肠癌筛查行为与健康素养水平之间的关系。在参与者中，只有一小部分人接受过这种筛查（9.3%）。患有肠道疾病（比值比=23）和有结直肠癌亲属（比值比=8）对结直肠癌筛查的影响最大。在大多数THLS-32亚组评分方面，包括THLS-32总分，结直肠癌筛查组之间存在显著差异。健康素养影响结直肠癌筛查率。初级保健工作者，尤其是社区卫生护士，处于提高健康素养从而提高癌症筛查率的理想位置。
