Digital media literacy skills are a necessity in order to use the new media fields and tools that are in question to be used in many ways correctly and in moderation. The aim of this study is to determine the new media literacy levels of students studying in the field of communication science and to examine them according to some demographic characteristics. The method of the study is a screening method, and the study group consists of 285 students identified by an easily accessible sample technique. In the analysis of the data, “T-test, One-Way Analysis of Variance, Kruskal-Wallis, Mann Whitney U” tests were used. The results of the analysis show that the new media literacy levels of the students studying in the field of communication science are high. In the study, no significant differences were found according to gender and place of residence variables. In the study, a significant difference was found in favor of associate degree students in the learning status variable and in favor of groups with less income in the functional production sub-dimension if it is in the monthly income variable. In addition, it was observed that there was a significant difference in favor of the groups with more than 4 hours of use for critical consumption, functional production dimension and the whole scale according to daily digital media usage time.

Günümüzde öne çıkan ve etkin olarak kullanılan teknolojiler, okuryazarlık becerisinin sadece yazma ve okuma eylemleriyle değil aynı zamanda yeni ilişkiler ağıyla da ele alınmasını gerektirmektedir. Yeni iletişim teknolojilerinin hayatımızda yer edinmesi, okuryazarlık kavramının dijital alanda karşılık bulmasını ve yeni medya okuryazarlığı kavramının oluşmasını sağlamıştır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, sağlık sektöründe çalışanların yeni medya okuryazarlığı becerilerini betimlemektir. Çalışma verileri, nicel araştırma türlerinden tarama yöntemiyle analiz edilmiştir. Çalışma örneklemini basit seçkisiz örneklem tekniği ile belirlenen 351 sağlık çalışanı oluşturmaktadır. Veriler, “yeni medya okuryazarlık ölçeği” kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde T testi, Tek Yönlü Varyans Analizi, Kruskal-Wallis, Mann Whitney U testleri kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre, sağlık çalışanlarının fonksiyonel tüketim ve eleştirel tüketim alt boyut düzeyleri yüksek, fonksiyonel üretim ve eleştirel üretim alt boyutları ise ölçeğin tamamında orta düzeydedir. Çalışanların yeni medya okuryazarlıkları cinsiyetlere göre kadınların lehine, eğitim durumlarına göre ön lisans ve lisans mezunlarının lehine, dijital medyayı kullanım süresine göre günlük 6-10 saat kullananların lehine ve kullanım yerine göre evde ve uyuyamadığında kullanan gruplar lehine istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir şekilde farklılaşmaktadır. Sağlık çalışanların aylık gelirlerine göre yeni medya okuryazarlıklarında anlamlı bir farklılık tespit edilmemiştir.
