Abstract：Objective To investigate the current situation of e-health literacy of undergraduates in Guangzhou City and explore the influence of e-health information acquisition behavior on e-health literacy, so as to provide suggestions for enhancing the e-health literacy of undergraduates. Methods A questionnaire survey was conducted among 1 002 undergraduate students from 10 universities in Guangzhou City by convenient sampling method to understand the e-health literacy and health information acquisition of undergraduates, and the influencing factors of undergraduate e-health literacy were analyzed. Results The total score of electronic health literacy of undergraduate students in Guangzhou City was 51 (43, 56) points, and the pass rate was 49.5%. Totally 81.0% of undergraduates took the initiative to obtain electronic health information. The official website of medical and health institutions, the website of government and health administrative departments, and the medical database were the three search channels with high ratings of survey respondents, while the common channels for respondents to obtain health information were search engines (68.6%), social platforms such as WeChat, Weibo (51.4%), and health thematic websites (41.3%). Binary logistic regression analysis showed that males, lower grade, students from rural areas, having a variety of medical insurance, good self-rated health status, using the Internet for health consultation, having health information search experience and health information search frequency>3 times a week were the promotion factors of e-health literacy level (P<0.05). Conclusion The e-health literacy of undergraduate students in Guangzhou City is at a lower middle level, and there is a deviation between the search behavior of electronic health information and the cognition of health information channels.
