- Abstract
- Purpose: This study is to measure oral health literacy levels and to identify oral health literacy related factors inelders. Methods: The research design for this study was a descriptive survey design using convenience samples.
Data collection was done by using a self-report questionnaire with 321 elders from three welfare centers for theaged and two senior centers located in three cities. Data were analyzed by using percentage, mean, standarddeviation, t-test, ANOVA, Scheffé, Pearson's Correlation Analysis and hierarchical multiple regression with theSPSS Win 18.0 Program. Results: The oral health literacy scores of male elders were higher than those of femaleelders (t=9.73, p=.002). In hierarchical multiple regression analysis, education levels, smoking and oral healthstatuses were significant predictors and accounted for 29.8% of the male elders' oral health literacy. For femaleelders, education levels, health statuses and oral health statuses were significant predictors and accounted for47.7%. Conclusion: These results suggest that interventions for improving oral health literacy are necessary toenhance elders' ability of self-care management. Also, these results could be used in developing oral health literacyprograms.
