Abstract
Health literacy (HL) can be defined as the degree to which individuals have the capacity to obtain, process, and understand basic health information and services needed to make appropriate health decisions. A module to measure HL has been implemented in Tuscany since 2017 within the Italian risk factor surveillance system (PASSI). Here, we aimed to assess HL levels and their relations with social determinants and health behaviours.I documenti in FLORE sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
