Health literacy, defined as the ability to access, understand, and use health information, is particularly important during this developmental period.\n\nSexual health is a key component of overall well-being and quality of life. Risky sexual behaviors among young adults may lead to serious outcomes such as unintended pregnancies, sexually transmitted infections, and sexual violence. Therefore, sexual health literacy is essential for promoting safe behaviors and protecting reproductive health.\n\nIn recent years, digital environments have become major sources of health information for young people. With the rapid rise of generative artificial intelligence tools, individuals increasingly rely on AI-based systems for accessing and interpreting health-related content. This highlights the growing importance of artificial intelligence literacy, which refers to the ability to understand, critically evaluate, and effectively use AI technologies.\n\nHowever, the relationship between artificial intelligence literacy and sexual health literacy has not yet been directly examined. This study aims to investigate the association between these two literacy domains among young adults, contributing to a better understanding of sexual health information-seeking behaviors in the digital age.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '24 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'The study population consists of young adults aged 18-24 years living in Turkey.
