Abstract
The use of a screening tool for assessing everyday health information literacy (EHIL) is examined in counselling on healthy eating and lifestyle in the intervention study Improved Methods of Lifestyle Modification for Patients at High Risk for Metabolic Syndrome (PrevMetSyn) ongoing in Finland from 2013 to 2016. A case study with quantitative methods is used. The participants in a controlled intervention trial (based on a population-based sample of 560 subjects) were randomized into three groups: (1) intensive face-to-face counselling, (2) low-intensive face-to-face counselling, and (3) a control group, and further into users or non-users of a web-based ICT-programme. All participants’ EHIL was screened at the beginning. The analyses indicated the distributions of the EHIL scores. Accordingly, one visit was targeted on the perceived ability to assess the quality of health information in intensive face-to-face counselling. Applying the EHIL tool together with cognitive behavioral therapy is a novel counselling approach.
