| Abstract | Background: Health literacy encompasses a variety of interconnected skills that individuals need to effectively navigate the healthcare system. There are various applications of health literacy aimed at enhancing people's health worldwide. Objectives: The aim of this research is to explore studies related to health literacy systems through an altmetric method. Methods: This altmetric study was conducted in 2024, focusing on all scientific publications related to health literacy systems indexed in Scopus from 1992 to 2023. Altmetric Explorer was used to gather altmetric scores and indicators. Descriptive and inferential statistics were subsequently calculated using SPSS V.26. Results: The search in Scopus from 1992 to the end of 2023 yielded a total of 6,137 articles related to health literacy systems. According to the results from Altmetric Explorer, 4,144 of these articles (67.52%) were mentioned in online social media and received altmetric scores. Most articles (n = 3,148) in the field of health literacy systems had altmetric scores ranging from one to ten. Conclusions: The results of this study indicated that research in the area of health literacy systems has a relatively limited presence on social media, despite being published in reputable journals and receiving mentions from researchers in the USA, UK, Australia, and Switzerland. Furthermore, a higher level of social media mentions correlated with an increase in citations of these studies. | en |
