Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
This study will assess two versions of the SunSmart video intervention. These are: 1) The INFORMATION VIDEO providing basic information about UV risks, including secondary skin cancer and the benefits of sun protection (SP), as well as specific SP recommendations and steps to integrate SP as part of routine self-care for the healthy cancer survivor; and 2) THE INFORMATION + APPEARANCE VIDEO which will include the full information video, along with an additional embedded video segment emphasizing negative appearance consequences of UV exposure. Primary aim of the study is to assess the impact of the video intervention on sun protection intentions and behavior in young adult cancer survivors compared to a control intervention. Secondary aims are to describe the impact of the appearance information when included in the SunSmart intervention, to investigate the extent to which the intervention changes sun protection through hypothesized mediating variables, and to describe the consistency of sleep behaviors over time in cancer survivors.
