Sunless and Indoor Tanning Among U.S. Non-Hispanic White Women Ages 18-49 Years.

The use of indoor UV tanning devices (also known as "indoor tanning") has declined in recent years. Less is known about use of dihydroxyacetone-containing products used for tanning (also known as "sunless tanning"). We analyzed data from the 2015 National Health Interview Survey.

Melanoma Incidence Rates Among Non-Hispanic American Indian/Alaska Native Individuals, 1999-2019.

Importance: Non-Hispanic American Indian/Alaska Native people have the second highest incidence rate of invasive cutaneous melanoma in the US after non-Hispanic White people.

Objective: To examine invasive cutaneous melanoma incidence rates and trends over time among non-Hispanic American Indian/Alaska Native people.

Design, Setting, And Participants: This descriptive, observational cross-sectional study used population-based cancer registry data (US Cancer Statistics AI/AN Incidence Analytic Database) linked to the Indian Health Service administrative database to examine incidence rates by age, sex, region, histology, tumor site, stage, and other demographic and clinical characteristics.

Consumers pay attention to ingredients on the front of a label: an eye tracking study.

Sunscreen is an important part of skin cancer prevention. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) proposed numerous changes to sunscreen labeling including adding active ingredients to the front of a label. The purpose of the study was to identify and describe differences in attention between current label formatting and the proposed label formatting.

Sun protection behavior: health impact, prevalence, correlates and interventions.

Sun protection behavior can reduce skin cancer risk. This paper provides an overview of skin cancer risk and the complex behavioral options for sun protection, along with a narrative review of research on determinants of, and interventions to promote, sun protection. Gaps and opportunities for future research are also outlined.

Visual Aids for Sunscreen Application: A mixed methods study.

Background: Consumers routinely underapply sunscreen, and this may be because they misinterpret application quantity directions on sunscreen labels. U.S.

Perceived Usefulness and Recall of Sunscreen Label Information by Consumers.

Importance: In February 2019, the US Food and Drug Administration issued a proposed rule (84 FR 6204), an amendment to the Sunscreen Innovation Act of 2014, that would require listing active ingredients on the principal display panel of sunscreens to allow consumers to "more readily compare products and either select or avoid a given product accordingly."

Objective: To understand consumers' perceived importance of active ingredients in sunscreen and their ability to recall these ingredients when comparing, avoiding, or selecting sunscreen products.

Design, Setting, And Participants: In this qualitative study, participants were recruited from Fors Marsh Group and User Works, Inc consumer panels and interviewed in person in November and December 2019.

The Context of Sunburn Among U.S. Adults: Common Activities and Sun Protection Behaviors.

Introduction: Sunburn increases skin cancer risk and is common among U.S. adults.

Associations between ultraviolet radiation, tree cover and adolescent sunburns.

Background: Sunburn is the strongest risk factor for melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancers. Adolescent sunburns are related to higher risk of developing melanoma later in life. Little is known about the association of sunburns and shade, particularly tree cover, around adolescent homes and schools.

Geographic disparities in cancer screening and fatalism among a nationally representative sample of US adults.

Background: Cancer screening in the USA is suboptimal, particularly for individuals living in vulnerable communities. This study aimed to understand how rurality and racial segregation are independently and interactively associated with cancer screening and cancer fatalism.

Methods: We used data from a nationally representative sample of adults (n=17 736) from National Cancer Institute's Health Information National Trends Survey, 2011-2017, including cancer screening (colorectal, breast, cervical, prostate) among eligible participants and cancer fatalism.

Tanning benefits, seasonal effects, and concerns about sunscreen: Measuring health beliefs about UV among college students.

To develop and validate a scale measuring health beliefs about UV in cloudy climates that may impact UV exposure behaviors. Students at a large university in Oregon completed pilot ( = 115) and final ( = 335) scales online March-July, 2016. Five participants underwent cognitive interviews.

Developing a post-treatment survivorship care plan to help breast cancer survivors understand their fertility.

Purpose: Reproductive-aged breast cancer survivors (BCS) who have completed initial cancer treatment frequently want to know about their future fertility potential. The purpose of this qualitative study was to assess if the fertility-related content presented in the survivorship care plan prototype met the informational needs of post-treatment BCS and to provide an opportunity for the target audience to review and react to the proposed content and design.

Methods: We conducted and analyzed transcripts from seven focus groups with BCS to evaluate their reactions to the survivorship care plan prototype.

Patient-centered communication between adolescent and young adult cancer survivors and their healthcare providers: Identifying research gaps with a scoping review.

Objective: To conduct a scoping literature review to identify practices or programs that promote AYA patient-centered communication.

Methods: Between January and May of 2016, we applied standard scoping review methodology to systematically review articles. We considered peer-reviewed, English language articles written at any phase of intervention research.

Sex differences and risk behaviors among indoor tanners.

Objective: The objectives were to examine (1) sex differences in factors associated with indoor tanning, and (2) the relationship between cancer risk perception and skin cancer screening among indoor tanners.

Methods: Data are from the 2010 National Health Interview Survey. The sample was limited to U.

Measurement of disordered eating in Latina college women.

The Eating Disorder Risk Composite (EDRC) comprises the Drive for Thinness, Bulimia, and Body Dissatisfaction subscales of the Eating Disorder Inventory, Third Edition (EDI-3, Garner, 2004). Past research conducted with Latina college women (LCW) has found older versions of the EDRC subscales to be reliable, but the EDI-3's EDRC factor structure has yet to be studied among LCW. The present study investigated the pattern of responses to and the factor structure of the EDRC in LCW.
