Özet:

 The main purpose of this research is to determine the effect of health literacy level on COVID-19 vaccine literacy and to develop a model with path analysis based on these effects. This study investigates how health literacy influences COVID-19 vaccine literacy, using path analysis to model the relationship. Data were collected from 410 individuals aged 18 at a Family Health Centre in Bursa, Turkey February-March 2022. In this study, quantitative analysis method was used and data were collected by face-to-face survey method. Convenience sampling method was used in the research. In the research, descriptive statistical analyzes, normality tests, explanatory factor analysis, difference analysis methods and path analyzes were applied. Data obtained from a total of 410 individuals were evaluated with IBM SPSS Statistic Base 23V and AMOS package programs. The Cronbach Alpha coefficients of the Health Literacy in Turkey 32 and COVID-19 Vaccine Literacy 12 scales, which constitute the variables of the study, were found to be 0.945 and 0.833, respectively. Based on the findings obtained as a result of the analysis, 7 hypotheses were accepted and 5 hypotheses were rejected. In the study, the effect of the participants who applied to Bursa Panayır Family Health Center on the COVID-19 vaccine literacy level of the participants with a high level of health literacy was revealed. The findings obtained from the path analysis show that the construct validity of the model is provided. Since the reliability coefficient is found as Alpha  0.936, the reliability of the model is also quite high.

 Bu araştırmanın temel amacı, sağlık okuryazarlığı düzeyinin COVID-19 aşı okuryazarlığına olan etkisini tespit etmek ve bu etkilerden yola çıkarak path yol analizi ile model geliştirmektir. Bu çalışma, sağlık okuryazarlığının COVID-19 aşı okuryazarlığını nasıl etkilediğini, ilişkiyi modellemek için yol analizi kullanarak araştırmaktadır. Veriler, Türkiyenin Bursa kentindeki bir Aile Sağlığı Merkezinde 18 yaş üstü 410 kişiden toplanmıştır Şubat-Mart 2022. Bu araştırmada nicel analiz yöntemi kullanılmıştır ve veriler yüz yüze anket yöntemi ile toplanmıştır. Araştırmada kolayda örnekleme yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Araştırmada betimsel istatistiksel analizler, normallik testleri, açıklayıcı faktör analizi, farklılık analizi yöntemleri ve path yol analizleri uygulanmıştır. Toplamda 410 kişiden elde edilen veriler, IBM SPSS Statistic Base 23V ve AMOS paket programları ile değerlendirilmiştir. Araştırmanın değişkenlerini oluşturan Türkiye Sağlık Okuryazarlığı 32 ve COVID-19 Aşı Okuryazarlığı 12 ölçeklerinin Cronbach Alpha katsayıları sırasıyla 0,945 ve 0,833 olarak bulunmuştur. Analiz sonucunda elde edilen bulgulara dayanarak 7 hipotez kabul edilirken, 5 hipotez reddedilmiştir. Araştırmada Bursa Panayır Aile Sağlığı Merkezine başvuran katılımcıların sağlık okuryazarlığı düzeyi yüksek olan katılımcıların COVID-19 aşı okuryazarlığı düzeyine olan etkisi ortaya koyulmuştur. Path analizinden elde edilen bulgular, modelin yapı geçerliliğinin sağlandığını göstermektedir. Güvenilirlik katsayısı Alfa 0,936 olarak bulunduğundan modelin güvenilirlik derecesi de oldukça yüksektir.
