Trial Outcomes & Findings for Sun Protection and Tanning Awareness in Rural Schools (NCT NCT06694571)

NCT ID: NCT06694571

Last Updated: 2026-04-03

Results Overview

Surveys (a baseline and a 1 month follow-up) will assess changes in sun protection, measured as an average of the frequency of sun protection items (on a 1-5 scale). Lower scores indicate less sun protection, and higher scores indicate more sun protection. The outcome variable is value at one month minus value at baseline.

Measure
Skin Cancer Prevention Education
Program components of a rural-adapted skin cancer prevention intervention (i.e., education, action planning exercise, risk assessment activity) will be co-implemented by the research team and participating school staff during a single- or double-session, in-class visit lasting up to 90 minutes. Students will be asked to complete surveys at baseline and one month post-intervention. Skin cancer prevention educational presentation and activities: An intervention visit, lasting up to 90 minutes, will take place during fall, immediately following completion of a baseline survey. This intervention visit may be divided into 2 days, depending on the length of the class periods at the participating schools. During the intervention visit, participants will receive general education on skin cancer and skin cancer prevention, complete a skin cancer risk self-assessment tool, and create a sun protection action plan for an outdoor activity. One month later, participants will receive a brief (15-minute) post-intervention survey via email and/or text.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and One-month time points, up to one month

Population: 8 participants did not complete the 1-month survey.

Surveys (a baseline and a 1 month follow-up) will assess changes in sun protection, measured as an average of the frequency of sun protection items (on a 1-5 scale). Lower scores indicate less sun protection, and higher scores indicate more sun protection. The outcome variable is value at one month minus value at baseline.
