Young people in leisure time

02.05.2018
An assessment tool to measure health literacy in youth populations that was developed by Thomas Abel and his ISPM colleagues (HLAT-8) has been translated into Chinese (c-HLAT-8).

Originally developed by combining health promotion theory and Swiss data, it was tested and found to be a reliable, valid, feasible instrument for measuring functional, interactive, and critical health literacy among Chinese students.
