This correlational study held with two types of psychological measurement that translated to Indonesian, those are Health Literacy Quetionnaire (HLQ) and Self-Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ).. Data was collected by online questionnaire, then statistically processed with Spearman-rank test.. The results showed that there’s a negaitve correlation between Health Literacy and Mental Health Status (r=-0.266, p<0.05).
