Nutrition literacy is one of essential components of health literacy. A relatively mature health literacy evaluation system has been established in China so far. However, the studies on nutrition literacy evaluation are still limited, especially for specific population, such as children, adolescents, older people, and maternal. The present study introduces the concept of nutrition literacy, and summarizes the evaluation tools of nutrition literacy for both general population and special population (i.e., children, adolescents, older people, and maternal) in China and foreign countries, and their dimension, reliability, validity and applicable scope. This study aim to provide evidence for the development of nutrition literacy evaluation tools for different population according to the current problem of nutrition in China.
营养素养是健康素养的重要组成部分，目前我国针对营养素养的评价研究处于起步阶段，针对特定人群如儿童青少年、老年人、孕产妇的营养素养评价工具研究相对较少。本文对营养素养概念、近几年国内外针对一般人群和特殊人群（儿童青少年、老人、孕产妇）营养素养相关评价工具及其维度、信效度和应用范围进行综述，结合目前我国所面临的营养问题，为今后针对不同人群营养素养工具的开发提供思路。.
