Abstract
- This article presents the findings of a survey conducted at an outdoor football game to understand sun protection behaviors and barriers among spectators. The survey had a response rate of 90.6% and included questions on demographics, sun protection habits, barriers to use, and history of skin examination. The results showed that older individuals used more sun protection methods compared to younger individuals, and women were more likely to use sunscreen and get skin checks by a dermatologist. The overall rate of sunscreen use was high, but participants aged 18-23 and men were less likely to use sun protection. The article suggests targeted interventions to promote sun safety, increase skin health literacy among college-aged students, and encourage more men to adopt sun-protective practices.
