| Description |
This study emphasises critical health literacy and as a consequence, the importance of media literacy in establishing health consciousness. Health litreacy is examined with critical view by this descriptive study and emphasizes the strategic role of media literacy in the development of health literacy. Turkey ranks as the second most active country in social media penetration and the study treats media literacy in Turkey exclusively with regards to “social media” use in Turkey and explains the reasons behind this preference with statistics. Furthermore, this study discusses the development and the spreading of critical health literacy and includes suggestions toward the goal.
