Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between young people's health literacy, healthy eating attitudes, and health anxiety. Material and methods: The data of this cross-sectional and descriptive study were collected by face-to-face interviews with students studying in the department of nursing, nutrition and dietetics and health management at the health sciences faculty of a university located in the Central Anatolia region of Turkey. The sample of the study consisted of 599 students who volunteered to participate in the study. In collecting the data of the study, Individual Descriptive Information Form, Turkish Health Literacy Scale (THLS-32), Attitudes towards Healthy Eating Scale (ASHN), Health Anxiety Inventory (Short Version) (HAI) used. Results: It was determined that the total mean score of the students on the THLS-32 scale was 33.57±8.41, the mean total score of ASHN was 70.57±10.87, and the mean total score of HAI was 19.67±7.43. There was a positive relationship between students' health literacy and their attitudes towards healthy eating (r=0.258, p=0.000), a negative relationship between health anxiety (r=-0.171, p=0.000) and their attitudes towards healthy eating and health anxiety (r= -0.166, p=0.000). Conclusion: It is important that this study is the first to examine health literacy, attitudes towards healthy eating, and health anxiety together. It is thought that improving the health literacy and healthy eating attitudes of students who will be health care professionals and reducing their health anxiety will provide significant benefits individually and socially.

İnternet kullanım oranlarının yıllar içerisinde artarak devam ettiğini gösteren istatistikler, sosyal medya bağımlılığı ve bu bağımlılığın neden olduğu davranış bozukluklarını araştırmaya yönelik akademik ilgiyi de artırmaktadır. Bu bakımdan söz konusu araştırma alanına farklı örneklem gruplarıyla katkı sağlamanın önem arz ettiği düşünülmektedir. Buradan hareketle çalışmanın amacı, Z kuşağı olarak nitelendirilen bireylerin sosyal medya bağımlılığı ve sosyotelist olmaları arasındaki ilişkisinin incelenmesi olarak belirlenmiştir. Araştırmada betimsel tarama modeli kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın örneklemi, basit tesadüfi yönteme göre seçilen Konya devlet üniversitelerinde öğrenim gören 404 kişiden oluşmaktadır. Verilerin çarpıklık ve basıklık değerlerine bakılmış ve verilerin parametrik dağılım gösterdiği tespit edilmiştir. Bu doğrultuda Anova ve T-testi yapılmıştır. Anlamlı farklılıkların yönünün tespiti Tukey HSD çoklu karşılaştırma testi ile kontrol edilmiştir. Ölçekler arasındaki ilişkinin tespit edilmesi için ise pearson kolerasyon testi uygulanmıştır. Araştırmada elde edilen bulgulara göre “Sosyal Medya Bağımlılığı” ve “Genel Sosyotelist Olma” ölçeklerinde yaş, cinsiyet ve günlük uyku süresi değişkenlerine göre anlamlı farklılıklar olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak; “Sosyal Medya Bağımlılığı” ve “Genel Sosyotelist Olma” arasında pozitif yönde anlamlı bir ilişki vardır.

In today’s increasingly digitalized world, social media have become indispensable to daily life, providing easy access to vast information. However, concerns arise about uncontrolled and unconscious use of social media, especially among younger generations. Social media, which adolescents turn to meet their various psychosocial needs, such as emotions, thoughts, and experiences, are believed to influence their food choices, nutritional habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and, ultimately, their overall health. Specifically, nutritional habits of teenagers are affected by a broad range of psychosocial and environmental factors. Since adolescence attributes an increased importance to physical appearance, the ideal body image portrayed on social media enhances teenagers’ vulnerability to body dissatisfaction. It makes them prone to developing eating disorders. Available research indicates that social media addiction is associated with an increase in eating disorders and a decrease in life satisfaction, which, in turn, can result in deteriorating social relationships, social withdrawal, and an inability to take adequate responsibility for one’s health and nutrition, thus further perpetuating social media addiction. In this context, educational interventions aimed at families’, children’s, and adolescents’ awareness about conscious social media use could be crucial steps to improve public health and safeguard the well-being of future generations.
