Abstract | Purpose: This research focuses on the development of the health information literacy test for the elderly in the Senior Citizen Club of Bangkok Public Health Center.Methodology: This research and development study (R & D) systematically constructed a health information literacy test by dividing its construction into 2 phases: 1) health information literacy test construction and 2) the test quality assessment by examining its content reliability, difficulty, and discrimination power. Findings: This health information literacy test was a multiple-choice form comprising 30 items assessing 3 test aspects: 1) health information access 2) health information evaluation and 3) health information application. The analysis of the assessment of the test quality data, in addition, revealed that the test quality met the acceptable criteria. As a result of this test quality measurement, this test was found to be of good quality as well as to be used for assessing the health information literacy of the elderly.Applications of the study: Bangkok and provincial public health service centers and other concerned agencies can use this developed test to measure senior citizens' health information literacy. Also, it can be used as a guideline for developing health information literacy tests for other target groups. |
