Abstract：Objective To investigate the health literacy level of undergraduates in a medical college in Guangxi, to analyze its influencing factors, and to provide evidence for conducting health education in the university and developing intervention measures.Methods A questionnaire survey on health literacy was conducted among 2,410 undergraduates in a medical university in Guangxi. Single factor analysis and logistic regression analysis were performed to identify the factors influencing health literacy. Results Six disciplines, namely, medicine, nature science, law, literature, management science and education, were involved in this survey, including 22 undergraduate majors and 130 classes. The health literacy level of medicine was the highest (57.73%), followed by management science (45.57%), nature science (29.85%), literature (29.06%), education (27.12%) and law (20.78%). Logistic regression analysis showed that the discipline was the factor influencing health literacy. Based on medicine, the OR values of nature science, law, literature, management science and education were 2.539 (95%CI:1.447-4.455), 6.233 (95%CI: 3.493-11.084), 2.919 (95%CI: 1.900-4.486), 1.759 (95%CI: 1.244-2.468) and 3.119 (95%CI: 1.703-5.714), respectively. The higher the grade, the higher the health literacy level. Taking the freshman year as the reference, the OR values of sophomore, junior and senior years were 0.427 (95%CI: 0.336-0.542), 0.225 (95%CI:0.175-0.288) and 0.167 (95%CI: 0.130-0.213), respectively. Conclusions The knowledge system of each discipline is different, and the training processes of undergraduates are diverse. There is a big gap in the health literacy level among various disciplines and dimensions, and the health consciousness needs to be improved.
