Abstract<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Objectives<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This study aimed to identify which are the socio-demographic factors that can describe health information users\u2019 profiles in Europe and assess which are the factors distinguishing users and non-users and their association with the use of health-related online information.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Methods<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Data from the Flash Eurobarometer No. 404 (2014) was\u00a0<\/span>analysed<\/span>\u00a0through a multilevel\u202flogistic regression model and a propensity score matching.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Results<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

There were significant differences in the use of the Internet for health information according to gender, age, education, long-term illness and health-related knowledge. Thus, some digital divides persisted in the use of health information online. Results showed that a poor health status was associated with a higher use of the Internet for health purposes only for people having chronic conditions.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Conclusions<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Findings show a need to increase people\u2019s eHealth literacy, especially for males over 45\u202fyears old not suffering from a long-term illness. In order to limit the misuse of poor or untrustworthy health information that might contribute to higher health disparities, special interest should be focused on population socio-demographic characteristics.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
