算术,即“在日常生活中理解和使用数字的能力”,是识字的一个重要组成部分,但研究不足。与数字相关的任务在医疗保健中很常见,包括理解营养信息,解释血糖读数和其他临床数据,调整药物,以及理解风险沟通中的概率。虽然读写能力和计算能力密切相关,但我们发现许多患者具有足够的阅读能力,但计算能力较差。需要更好的工具来衡量计算能力和更多的研究来评估计算能力的独特贡献。这项研究有助于制定干预措施,以改善算术能力差的患者的预后。
Numeracy, the “ability to understand and use numbers in daily life” is an important but understudied component of literacy. Numeracy-related tasks are common in healthcare and include understanding nutrition information, interpreting blood sugar readings and other clinical data, adjusting medications, and understanding probability in risk communication. While literacy and numeracy are strongly correlated, we have identified many patients with adequate reading ability but poor numeracy skills. Better tools to measure numeracy and more studies to assess the unique contribution of numeracy are needed. This research can contribute to developing interventions to improve outcomes for patients with poor numeracy.
