Quantitative data were collected using self-administered standardized questionnaires measuring health literacy, self-efficacy, perceived social support, school environment, community environment, and health-promoting actions. Qualitative data were obtained through focus group discussions with students and key informant interviews with HPE teachers and school nurses.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Key Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The intervention design process followed the fundamental steps of the intervention mapping approach. After engaging with the school through formal and informal means, health literacy needs were identified and prioritized. Goals were then set, focusing on the individual and interpersonal levels. Next, all components of the intervention, including objectives, content, facilitators, methods, materials, modes, and evaluation techniques, were refined through a two-round modified Delphi process, resulting in the first draft. This draft was discussed with students, teachers, and school nurses before finalizing. The completed intervention, consisting of 13 sessions, is designed to be implemented by nine interdisciplinary facilitators using the SHOWED questioning framework (What do you see here? What is happening? How does this relate to our lives? Why does the problem exist? What can we do?).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This article reports on an intervention development process, systematically using mixed methods and the Delphi process, to offer a replicable approach to enhance adolescent health literacy and health-promoting actions.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3928\/24748307-20260413-01","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,4]],"date-time":"2026-09-04T15:50:03Z","timestamp":1788537003000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Development of a Theory-Based Adolescent Health Literacy Intervention: A Case of Nepal"],"prefix":"10.3928","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Shanti Prasad","family":"Khanal","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Education, Tribhuvan University, Kathmandu, Nepal;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chitra Bahadur","family":"Budhathoki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Education, Tribhuvan University, Kathmandu, Nepal;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Bhimsen","family":"Devkota","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Education, Tribhuvan University, Kathmandu, Nepal;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shyam Krishna","family":"Maharjan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Education, Tribhuvan University, Kathmandu, Nepal;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Orkan","family":"Okan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Technical University, Munich, School of Medicine and Health, Center for Health and Medicine in Society, Center for Health Promotion in Childhood and Adolescence, Munich, Germany."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"2308","reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_1_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.childyouth.2019.104667"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_3_1","volume-title":"Planning health promotion programs: An intervention mapping approach","author":"Bartholomew L.
