    Open AccessJosefin Wångdahl, Maria Jaensson et al.ARTICLEHealth Promotion International2025

    Health literacy (HL) is a critical determinant of health, as it affects health behavior and outcomes, in addition to equity in health. This study aimed to translate, culturally adapt, and validate the Swedish version of HLS19-Q12 (HLS19-Q12-SE).

    Open AccessLina Bergman, Ulrica Nilsson et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2021

    CHL and eHL differ between Arabic-speaking migrants and native Swedish speakers, but also between Arabic speakers who have lived different lengths of time in Sweden. Though it seems that the eHealth literacy is less affected by language spoken, the Internet is suggested to be an appropriate channel for disseminating health information to Arabic-speaking migrants
