  • First-year nursing students often transition from non-professionals to healthcare professionals, exposing them to significant medical information that can lead to "cyberchondria," or health-related anxiety stemming from online research.
  • This study aimed to explore how health anxiety affects the relationship between cyberchondria and health literacy in these students, involving 475 participants during the fall semester of 2023.
