Assessments included self-reported wearable use, sociodemographic factors (sex, age, education, household size and income, and residence region), and digital health literacy (measured with the eHealth Literacy Scale, eHEALS). Associations between wearable use, sociodemographic factors and digital health literacy were analyzed using binomial logistic regression models in the total sample and with age group stratification, with a supplementary mediation analysis examining digital health literacy as a mediator in the relationship between age and wearable use.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Overall, 24% (223\/932) of participants (52% male, mean age 55.6 years) reported using wearables for health. Wearable use was lower among participants aged 65 and above, with lower educational attainment, living in 1\u20132 person households, with below-average household income, and residing in smaller cities or former East Germany. Wearable use prevalence is substantially lower in older age groups (\n                      <jats:italic>18\u201340<\/jats:italic>\n                      : 36%;\n                      <jats:italic>41\u201364<\/jats:italic>\n                      : 26%;\n                      <jats:italic>65+<\/jats:italic>\n                      :14%). Wearable users reported higher levels of digital health literacy (mean: 30.7, SD\u2009=\u20095) than non-users (mean: 28.3, SD\u2009=\u20096). Stratified analyses indicate that the association between digital health literacy and wearable use varies by age group, with significant positive association observed in older age groups (OR\u2009=\u20091.00, 95% CI: 0.94 to 1.07 in age group 18\u201340; OR\u2009=\u20091.07, 95% CI: 1.03 to 1.12 in age group 41\u201364; OR\u2009=\u20091.11, 95% CI: 1.04 to 1.19 in age group 65+).
