| Abstract | ||
| E-learning in modern societies becomes particularly significant, when one takes into account such factors as the extensiveness of communities, the swift development and the need for constant education of citizens, time limitations for modern citizens as well as traffic issues, a lack of physical space and the high construction costs. The enhancement of the effectiveness and efficiency of this method in education and training are other advantages compared to the traditional one. A country’s health system can develop the internet use in the field of healthcare by laying down foundations for improvement. The study was conducted using a survey in 2013 with the aim of examining the role of e-learning in raising health awareness of young internet users. The statistical population of the study was a group of 200 female students at Allameh Tabataba’i University. Based on Cochran formula, 130 students were selected as the sample size and for the sample selection random sampling was used. Inferential findings of the study show that the main hypothesis of the researcher was proven. The findings of the research show that according to Uses and Gratification Theory, health messages and information of medical and health websites play a key role in changing the attitudes and health behavior of users; and compared to other media, a large number of their health information needs is met through them. In addition, based on the Elaboration Likelihood Model, respondents consider these messages and information as important factors for strengthening and maintaining their own optimal health, using them for managing their own health. | ||
