Abstract

Migrant university students living in boarding houses face significant challenges in maintaining healthy lifestyles due to academic pressure, environmental changes, and limited access to health-supporting facilities. Health literacy plays a crucial role in enabling students to manage their health independently by accessing, understanding, evaluating, and applying health information. This study aims to analyze the role of health literacy in shaping self-management skills and healthy lifestyle behaviors among migrant students residing in boarding houses. A quantitative descriptive approach was employed using a structured online questionnaire distributed to 50 migrant students. The instrument measured dimensions of health literacy, physical health behaviors, mental health awareness, and self-management practices. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics to identify behavioral trends and literacy patterns. The findings indicate that while students demonstrate relatively high access to digital health information, the application of health knowledge in daily practices such as balanced diet, regular physical activity, and adequate sleep remains inconsistent. Academic workload and economic constraints emerged as major barriers to healthy behavior. The study concludes that students’ health literacy is predominantly at a functional level and has not yet fully translated into sustainable self-management practices. These findings highlight the need for targeted health education interventions that promote critical and applied health literacy among migrant students.

Abstract

The preservation of local culture faces increasing challenges amid globalization, digitalization, and shifting youth lifestyles. Cultural literacy plays a crucial role in shaping young people’s awareness, attitudes, and participation in safeguarding cultural heritage. This study aims to analyze the level of cultural literacy and the extent of youth participation in preserving local culture. A quantitative descriptive approach was employed, involving young respondents aged 18–25 years. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire measuring cultural literacy dimensions—cultural knowledge, cultural awareness, critical understanding, and cultural participation. The findings indicate that most respondents demonstrate moderate to high levels of cultural literacy, particularly in cultural awareness and symbolic understanding. However, active participation in cultural preservation activities remains relatively limited and tends to be symbolic rather than practical. The results suggest that while young people possess basic cultural knowledge, gaps persist between cultural understanding and concrete participatory actions. Strengthening cultural literacy through education, digital media engagement, and community-based cultural programs is essential to foster sustainable youth participation in local cultural preservation.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the level of digital health literacy among migrant students living in boarding houses near campus and its association with healthy lifestyle behaviors. This study employed a quantitative approach using a survey design. Data were collected from migrant university students residing in boarding houses through a questionnaire based on the digital health literacy framework, encompassing four core dimensions: access, understand, appraise, and apply. Descriptive statistical analysis was used to examine patterns of digital health literacy and health-related behaviors. The findings indicate that most students demonstrate strong abilities in accessing and understanding digital health information, particularly through the internet and social media platforms. Students also show a relatively high level of awareness in verifying health information sources. However, a proportion of respondents remain uncertain when appraising the credibility of digital health information. In terms of application, the majority of students report engaging in positive health behaviors, including maintaining personal and environmental hygiene, regulating diet and hydration, performing light physical activity, and adopting adaptive coping strategies to support mental health. This study concludes that digital health literacy plays a significant role in shaping healthy lifestyle behaviors among migrant university students. Strengthening evaluative and applicative competencies through targeted digital health literacy education and campus-based health promotion programs is essential to support sustainable health behaviors in the digital era.
