The purpose of this research was to determine the relationship between Cyberchondria and information literacy among the students of Bushehr University of Medical Sciences in 2022. The method of implementation of this research was descriptive-analytical of cross-sectional type, and to collect information Yazdani information literacy questionnaires (2012) and Cyberchondria Severity Scale (CSS) were used. The findings showed a negative and significant relationship between Cyberchondria and students' information literacy; Also, the examination of the relationship between the five dimensions of information literacy and the Cyberchondria of students showed that the relationship between each of these dimensions with the level of illness is negative and significant. It was also a negative and significant relationship between the age variable and Cyberchondria of students. It means that as the age of the students increases, their Cyberchondria decrease. However, no significant relationship was observed between other demographic variables (educational level, marital status, and economic status) and the Cyberchondria of students. Among other findings of this research, we can mention the lack of significant difference between the average score of Cyberchondria between women and men. The results of this study showed an average to a high level of Cyberchondria among students. Considering the negative and significant relationship between information literacy and Cyberchondria, it is recommended to promote information literacy through educational workshops and includes this important topic in students' curricula.

Media and information literacy refers to a set of skills and abilities that allow a person to search, evaluate, analyze, and use information effectively. In today's world, where information is spreading rapidly and access to various sources through various media has become very easy, the importance of media and information literacy is felt more than ever. In today's world, information is widely available to everyone, and students, as the new generation and future builders of society, are faced with a huge amount of data and various contents more than ever before. Due to this extent, the ability to manage, process, and analyze this information is of particular importance. Media and information literacy is a set of skills that allows people to use the available information and ensure its accuracy effectively. Students, especially in academic settings, continuously need access to information sources for their research, studies, and decision-making. The lack of media and information literacy among students can have serious consequences in various academic, research, and even personal dimensions. This lack means the inability to search, evaluate, analyze, and effectively use available information, which can lead to problems in understanding information correctly, relying on unreliable sources, and spreading false information. In academic environments, students are regularly confronted with large amounts of information in trticles, books, online data, and other sources. Without adequate media and information literacy skills, these students may have difficulty distinguishing credible from dubious sources and may not be able to properly assess which information is reliable and which is false or biased. The lack of this type of literacy can negatively affect the quality of research and scientific results of students. This situation not only hinders their academic progress but can also lead to the dissemination of false information in the scientific community. In addition, the lack of sufficient media literacy makes students more vulnerable to false or misleading information in the media and social networks. This deficiency can lead to the strengthening of false beliefs and unhealthy behaviors that have destructive effects on the individual and society. Therefore, the lack of media and information literacy is an important challenge for students that requires special attention from educational and cultural institutions. Improving these skills can help improve the quality of education, research, and individual and social empowerment of students. Therefore, investigating the state of media and information literacy among sports science students can help identify strengths and weaknesses in this field and provide solutions to improve these skills. This issue is not only effective in improving the educational and research quality of students, but it can also play an important role in preventing the spread of false information and increasing the level of public awareness. Therefore, the present study aimed to provide solutions for improving media and information literacy among sports science students of universities in Mazandaran province.

This research was qualitative. The statistical population in the qualitative part included two human societies and an information society (scientific and library resources). The human part of the statistical population of the research was made up of all those who were aware of the subject of media and information literacy in the field of sports and specifically included experts in the field of media, information technology, and sports management. A sufficient number of statistical samples were selected based on reaching the theoretical saturation of the research framework and were selected in a purposeful and accessible manner (16 people). The basis of the sample selection was that the selected people could contribute to the formation of the theory and the reproducibility of the findings. The information society also included library and scientific resources such as articles and books compiled in the field of media and information literacy. In the qualitative part, research tools included two library study tools and interviews. At first, library studies are conducted to check the current state of scientific resources related to the research topic. Methods and methods such as analysis of the conducted research, generation of information, and description of the desired situation were used. Then, after extracting the initial list of indicators, an exploratory interview was used to complete and develop the framework. The validity of the transcript of the library study and the interview tool was first evaluated using experts' opinions. Then, it was checked through the validity methods of coding and the agreement of the correctors (kappa coefficient, etc.). To investigate the ways to improve the media and information literacy of sports science students, it was done with a qualitative approach and by Max Kyuda version 18 software. In this way, the notes and audio materials from the interviews with 16 experts in sports, media, and information management were implemented along with the data collected from the study of 40 scientific documents including related articles and books through the software. The mentioned was analyzed.

The qualitative results of the reflected research showed that to develop media and information literacy, it is necessary to act in three areas: access, evaluation, and application. For example, to improve the fields of sports science students, responsible and involved institutions should develop internet infrastructure and communication networks.

In general, it can be stated that the results of the research show that the development of media and information literacy among sports science students in Mazandaran universities requires focusing on three key areas: access to information, evaluation of information, and application of information. Improving access to reliable information sources is the first step in this direction, which enables students to access up-to-date scientific data. After that, it is necessary to strengthen the skills of information evaluation, so that students can evaluate the validity and accuracy of sources and avoid false or misleading information.

Due to the necessity of the relationship between the university and society, the aim of this study was a scientometrics analysis of researches in the field of media and information literacy (MIL) in strengthening the relationship between universities and social space.

In this scientometric study, the statistical population was all articles published in the field of MIL as well as relationship between university and society in the Web of Science (WoS) from 2010 to 2019. The VOS viewer was used to draw a co-authorship map of all organizations, density map of countries and word co-occurrence map.

The highest and lowest scientific outputs related to this field were in 2017 and 2014, respectively. According to the results of VOS viewer software, there were 136 nodes and 3084 links in the map. Based on frequency clustering, the topics of "Higher Education", "Types of Media Literacy Levels", "Technology" and "New Curriculum" were identified as thematic clusters in the field of MIL. Moreover, Spain, Mexico and Chile had the highest density in the co-authorship network of MIL documents, respectively. Cluster analysis of the co-authorship network of countries in the field of MIL and relationship between university and social space indicated that this network was composed of 6 distinct clusters.

The co-occurrence of various words including "community", "university" and "digital space" in drawing the scientific map demonstrates the importance and necessity of close relationship between society and university in the context of digital and media space.

Information literacy is a set of skills for identifying and accessing the right information resources, and the ability to use them purposefully and is a tool for individual empowerment, which is very important for students. The purpose of this study was to assess the correlation of critical thinking skills and metacognitive strategies with information literacy of graduate students.
This descriptive correlational study was conducted on 274 graduate students of Arak University in 2012-13 academic year. Subjects were selected using stratified random sampling. Data collection tools were California Critical Thinking Skills Form B, metacognitive state questionnaire and a researcher-made information literacy questionnaire. Cut-off point was set at 20 for critical thinking skills. The highest and lowest scores were 80 and 20 respectively in the metacognitive state questionnaire and for information literacy they were 145 and 29 respectively. Multiple linear regression and correlation were used to analyze the data.
The mean score of critical thinking skills was 21.46±7.12 and at a desirable level. The mean score of metacognitive strategies was 62.36±7.67. The mean score of information literacy was 96.72±15.19. No significant relationship was found between critical thinking skills and information literacy (p=0.924, r=0.006) and also between critical thinking skills and metacognitive strategies (p=0.883, r=-0.009). However, there was a significant relationship between metacognitive strategies and information literacy (p=0.0001, r=0.431). Results of regression analysis showed that only metacognitive strategies was the fitted predictor of information literacy.
As metacognitive strategies of students increase, so does their information literacy. It is therefore suggested to include metacognitive strategies training in higher education programs so that students will act as independent learners in self-learning processes.
