Health literacy is important for health and investment outcomes. However, the studies of the association between health literacy and preventive behavior of high-normal blood pressure are limited. The objectives of this study were to 1) determine health literacy based on 3E2S of people with high-normal blood pressure, 2) examine the association between health literacy based on 3E 2S and adherence to preventive behavior of people with high-normal blood pressure. A cross-sectional research was conducted from February, 1 to March 30, 2021. The sample were 220 people, diagnosed with high normal blood pressure, aged 35-59 years living in the area of Sighanakhon district, Songkhla province. Research instruments consisted of 1) health literacy based on the 3E 2S questionnaire,
2) adherence to preventive behavior scale. Reliability was tested by Cronbach alpha coefficient yielding a value of .83 and .95, respectively. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Spearman’s Rho correlation coefficient. Research results revealed that 1) health literacy of people with high-normal
blood pressure, overall, was at a fair level (=47.14, SD=5.50), 2) preventive behavior of people with high-normal blood pressure was at a fair level (
=216.04, SD=41.79), 3) overall, health literacy based on 3E2S was significantly positively associated with adherence to preventive behavior of hypertension (r=.386, p<.01).From these findings, it is recommended that health literacy based on 3E2S which is related to adherence to preventive behavior of people with high-normal blood pressure should be promoted. Health literacy based on 3E2S should also be developed for proper and continuous adherence to hypertension preventive behaviors.
