Özet:

 Aim: The aim of this study is to determine the frequency of use of mobile health applications and to establish the relationship between the use of mobile health applications and e-Health literacy. Additionally, the study aims to identify the reasons why users prefer mobile health applications, the types of mobile health applications they need, and their level of concern regarding current applications. Method: The data in this study was collected using the e-Health Literacy Scale developed by Norman and Skinner 2006 and adapted to Turkish by Gencer 2017. Descriptive statistics, independent samples t-test, one-way analysis of variance, and correlation analysis were used in the data analysis. The data were analyzed with a confidence interval of 95 p0.05. Findings: 93.51 of the participants prefer to use mobile health applications in different categories to meet their health needs, and their e-health literacy levels are good in all categories and generally high with a mean of 3.76. While there was no significant difference in e-health literacy levels of the participants based on age and gender, there was a significant difference based on educational and employment status. Approximately 56 of the participants expressed no concern about data privacy and security when using mobile health applications, while 30 were undecided and 14 expressed concerns. Results: According to the results of the research, the use of mobile health applications is quite common among the participants, and online appointment booking applications are among the most preferred mobile health applications.

 Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı; mobil sağlık uygulamalarının kullanım sıklıklarını belirleyerek mobil sağlık uygulaması kullanımının e-Sağlık okuryazarlığıyla olan ilişkisini ortaya koymak ve kullanıcıların mobil sağlık uygulamalarını tercih nedenlerini, ihtiyaç duydukları mobil sağlık uygulamalarının neler olduğunu ve mevcut uygulamalara yönelik endişe düzeylerini belirlemektir. Yöntem: Çalışmadaki veriler Norman ve Skinner 2006 tarafından geliştirilerek Gencer 2017 tarafından Türkçeye uyarlanan E-Sağlık Okuryazarlığı Ölçeği ile toplanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde tanımlayıcı istatistik, bağımsız örneklem t testi, tek yönlü varyans analizi ve korelasyon analizi kullanılmıştır. Veriler 95 güven aralığında p0,05 analiz edilmiştir. Bulgular: Katılımcıların 93,51i sağlık ihtiyaçlarını karşılamak için farklı kategorilerde mobil sağlık uygulaması kullanmayı tercih etmekte olup, e-Sağlık okuryazarlığı düzeylerinin tüm kategorilerde iyi ve genel olarak 3,76 ortalama ile yüksek seviyelerdedir. Katılımcıların yaş ve cinsiyetine göre e-sağlık okuryazarlığı düzeylerinde anlamlı fark bulunmamasına karşılık eğitim durumu ve çalışma durumlarına göre anlamlı fark bulunmaktadır. Katılımcıların yaklaşık 56sı mobil sağlık uygulaması kullanırken veri gizliliği ve güvenliği konularında endişe duymadığını ifade ederken, 30u kararsız olduğunu, 14ü ise endişelendiğini belirtmektedir. Sonuç: Araştırmanın sonuçlarına göre çalışmaya katılan bireylerde mobil sağlık uygulamalarının kullanımı oldukça yaygın olup en sık tercih edilen mobil sağlık uygulamaları arasında çevrim içi randevu alma uygulamaları gelmektedir.
