Due to lack of mobility or reduction of physical activity, all kinds of physical and mental illnesses occur in adolescent, the elimination of which requires spending a lot of money on the country s economy. Health literacy may play a role in motivating people to become physically active or stay active. However, little is known about the effect of health literacy on physical activity in the adolescent. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between adolescent health literacy and leisure physical activity.The present study is descriptive-correlational and based on structural equation modeling. The statistical population of the present study included all adolescents aged ۱۳ to ۱۶ years in Guilan province. Sampling method was available randomly. To collect the data, Sukis et al. (۲۰۲۱) Leisure Scale Health Literacy and Physical Activity Questionnaire was used on a five-point Likert scale. All analyzes were performed using SPSS version ۲۵ and AMOS version ۲۴.The results showed that approximately ۶۰% of the participants were not active enough. Having moderate or high levels of health literacy was positively associated with leisure physical activity. In addition, being a boy, belonging to a more affluent family, and having a father who exercised were important predictors of adolescents leisure physical activity.These findings indicate that encouraging physical activity in students and including the promotion of health literacy in the school curriculum is very important. Given the role of parents exercise habits, their greater participation in school-based intervention programs to promote health should also be encouraged.
