More research is needed to understand how attitudes impact behaviors that afford sun protection.
The current study examined the impact of students’ perceptions of parental beliefs about sun exposure and its influence on their practiced sun protection behaviors and worry about sun exposure.
Participants were college students (N=462) at a large Midwestern university.
They completed a survey to examine their perceptions of risks and messages about sun exposure and sun exposure behaviors.
Results indicated that gender and students’ perceptions of parental beliefs about sun exposure were related to sun protection behaviors and their own worry over sun exposure.
Specifically, males showed lower levels of sun protection behaviors, with the exception of wearing a hat with a brim, and lower levels of worry about sun exposure compared to females.
Roughly a third of our sample had a family history of skin cancer, and this variable was related to worry about sun exposure and parental beliefs.
Prevention messages and interventions to reduce sun risk for college students should address risks of sun exposure as well as educating young adults about the importance of wearing sunscreen, protective clothing, and hats to improve sun protection.
