Background: Young people and adolescents are increasingly using digital
platforms for various purposes, including health aspects, which is not linear
about whether they consider health information important or understand it.
Objectives: Exploratory study with 51 individuals aged 17 to 25 years to ascertain their perception of health issues. Methodology: For this study, a
10-question questionnaire survey was elaborated and distributed online via
the Facebook Social Network to 51 male and female adolescents, aged 17 to
25, living in the Greater Lisbon area, college students. Conclusions and Relevance: Young people want to know about their health, but feel that they
should do this research by themselves. On the other hand, health information
research and using skills demonstrate a failure in both access to reliable information and processing and understanding.
