Description
We modified and tested the All Aspects of Health Literacy Scale (AAHLS) with a sample of Chinese speakers who have limited English proficiency
in the U.S. The AAHLS is a theory-based health literacy survey assessing functional health literacy, interactive health literacy, information appraisal, and empowerment. We adapted the survey, created dual language scenarios (English and Chinese), translated the questions into Chinese (both traditional and simplified Chinese), and conducted cognitive interviews to revise the questions.
