Abstract: The evaluation of online health information, i.e. its reliability, credibility, trustworthiness, etc., plays a significant role in the users’ judging and health behaviour change process. Related works haven’t come to a consensus on the framework of trust formation process. Nor much attention has been paid to one of the most active groups of online information users, the youth. This study, from the young people’s perspective, examines the perception and judgment on the trustworthiness towards online health information. To test the design and reveal deficiencies of the study and procedure before time and resources are expended on large-scale studies, a pilot study was designed and conducted. Then semi-structured interviews were employed involving students from two groups: university freshman and the seniors respectively. The preliminary results cover: the exploration of their health information seeking process, factor analysis towards trustworthiness of online health information, the p erceptions on HON measures and related health information literacy.
