Abstract

This poster presents a research study, aiming at exploring the research similarities and dif-ferences on the elder’s e-health literacy between China and other countries. To provide a theoretical basis for the future research in the field of e-health, a systematic literature re-view was adopted in this study. A total of 1563 articles were retrieved from 7 databases including 3 Chinese databases and 4 English databases. After screening, 65 articles were included and analyzed. Results from literature analysis suggest that the research differ-ences between China and other countries are reflected in research objects, research pur-poses, research methods and research content, while the similarities mainly lie in other aspects of research purposes and methods. This poster provides a perspective on the el-der’s e-health research and offers useful insights that can be shared to improve the re-search on e-health literacy for the elderly worldwide.
