“…This media by Flew ( 2002) is understood as digital media, namely all forms of media content that are combine and unify (integrate) data, text, voice and various kinds of images (images) stored in digital format, and distributed via e-mail communication networks such as fiber optic, broadband, satellite and transmission systems microwave. Silverblatt (1995) Media literacy is learned through improving the individual's ability to understand and analyze media content.

Media content, skills in using new media and understanding of health information together have a strong influence on people's attitudes in maintaining health in tourist areas in Indonesia in 2021. People in tourist areas are also very concerned about mutual health. Because they are very aware that the economic condition is very dependent on tourism. Therefore, if the entire population in the tourist area is healthy, then tourism in the area will be visited by many local and foreign tourists. Research suggestion is that this research can be developed by elaborating other knowledge studies, and elaborating other methods.

“…Rahatlamak veya yeni deneyimler elde etmek gibi kişisel ihtiyaçların daha fazla önemsenmesi bireylerin, reklamlarda estetik boyuta odaklanmasının bir diğer sebebini oluşturmaktadır (Malmelin, 2010: 135). Estetik okuryazarlık aynı zamanda, reklamın tasarım, üretim ve uygulamaya ilişkin kararlarındaki inceliği anlamayı ve mesajlardaki sanatsal niteliğe değer vermeyi de içermektedir (Potter, 2013;Silverblatt, 1995). Retoriksel okuryazarlık: Berger (1995: 131), "reklam, çekicilik üretme sürecidir" şeklinde ifade ederken, retorik içeren bir şekilde yaklaşmıştır.…”

Markaların tüketicileri ile iletişime geçmek için geçmişten bu yana başvurdukları iletişim faaliyetlerinin başında reklam gelmektedir. Reklamın, markalar tarafından vazgeçilmez bir unsur olarak görülmesi, bireylerin gündelik hayatında bilinçli veya bilinçsiz bir şekilde sayısız mesajlara maruz kalmasına neden olmaktadır. Buna ilişkin olarak tüketicilerin bu mesajları nasıl anladığı ve yorumladığı, söz konusu reklama yönelik tutumdan, satın alma eylemine kadar yönlendirebilmektedir. Bu noktada medya okuryazarlığının bir parçası olarak reklam okuryazarlığı önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Buradan hareketle çalışmada, tüketicilerin reklam okuryazarlık boyutları tespit edilerek, sahip oldukları reklam okuryazarlık boyutlarının rasyonel ve duygusal reklama yönelik tutumlarının ne yönde değiştiğini ölçümlemek amaçlanmaktadır. Bu amaçla elverişli örneklem yöntemiyle, çevrimiçi ortamda, 271 kişiye, Google Forms aracılığıyla oluşturulan anket tekniği uygulanmıştır. Malmelin’in (2010) dört boyutlu reklam okuryazarlığı modelinden hareketle geliştirilen araştırmanın sonucuna göre, bilgisel, retoriksel, görsel/estetik ve promosyonel olmak üzere dört temel reklam okuryazarlığı faktörü ortaya çıkarılmıştır. Rasyonel ve duygusal reklama yönelik tutum üzerinde, bilgisel ve görsel/estetik boyutun anlamlı ve pozitif yönde bir etkisi olduğu gözlemlenmiştir.

These skills include access, analysis, evaluation, and communication (Silverblatt et al, 2014;Sahin, 2014). In the first approach, media literacy is defined as obtaining information from media such as television, radio, newspapers, and the Internet, and critically evaluating it (Bawden, 2001).…”
