Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Participants will be randomly assigned to one of four groups, the group will be in is decided by chance. Participant will either be assigned to:
* A group that gets advice about what causes skin cancer and how to prevent it
* A group that gets this advice and provides a saliva sample to receive personalized skin cancer risk genetic testing results
* A group that gets this advice and receives a personalized photo that shows existing skin damage
* A group that gets this advice, receives genetic testing results, and receives a personalized photo.

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Screening: Participants will have the option to complete and online or text based screening form. Study staff may contact participants who screen to be eligible via phone, text, or email. Study staff will screen potential participants who do not complete the screening form on their own for eligibility. Participants will be contacted by phone, text, or email (starting with the method they indicated would be best to reach them) to schedule their first study visit.
Enrollment
Visit 1: All participants who consent to participate will be asked to participate in up to 3 study visits approximately 4 weeks apart. At visit 1, all participants will be asked to complete informed consent procedures and a baseline questionnaire via computer (e.g., using Qualtrics) or paper. Participants will be randomized to receive education only, or varying combinations of the intervention components.
Visit 2: At visit 2 participants will receive education on the importance of skin cancer prevention behaviors (e.g., sunscreen, protective clothing) and avoiding tanning and sunburns. All education will be delivered at this visit on a computer screen and additionally given to participants as a handout they can take home to review. When participants view the information on the computer screen, eye tracking will be used to assess participant response. Prior to viewing results, eye tracking equipment set up at the computer station will be calibrated. We will then put up their results on the screen and the imotion system will then track their pupillary movement, facial expression, and galvanic skin response (physiological arousal). Participants will be allowed as much time as they would like to review their results. Following this, participants will complete a post assessment. Participants will receive paper copies of all of the relevant information to take home with them.
Visit 3: Visit 3 may be conducted remotely. At visit 3, participants will complete a follow-up assessment.
Follow-up interview: A random sample of the participant population with be contacted to participate in a follow-up interview with study staff to answer questions about their experience participating in the RISE-UP study.
Arm 2: Skin Cancer Education + UV Photo
Screening: Participants will have the option to complete and online or text based screening form.

Visit 1: All participants who consent to participate will be asked to participate in up to 3 study visits approximately 4 weeks apart. At visit 1, all participants will be asked to complete informed consent procedures and a baseline questionnaire via computer (e.g., using Qualtrics) or paper. Participants will be randomized to receive education only, or varying combinations of the intervention components. Participants randomized to the education + UV photo arm will have their UV light photo taken of their face to show UV damage in the skin that is invisible to the naked eye. Photos will be taken with the VISIA Facial Complexion Analysis System, which captures high resolution imagery at the far spectrum of UVA or long wave UV.
Visit 2: At visit 2 participants will receive education on the importance of skin cancer prevention behaviors (e.g., sunscreen, protective clothing) and avoiding tanning and sunburns. Participants will be provided with their personalized risk feedback based on their personalized photo showing their skin's existing UVR damage from UVR exposure. All information will be delivered at this visit on a computer screen and additionally given to participants as a handout they can take home to review. When participants view their results on the computer screen, eye tracking will be used to assess participant response. Prior to viewing results, eye tracking equipment set up at the computer station will be calibrated. We will then put up their results on the screen and the imotion system will then track their pupillary movement, facial expression, and galvanic skin response (physiological arousal). Participants will be allowed as much time as they would like to review their results. Following this, participants will complete a post assessment. The imagery resulting will be kept on file in a password protected computer. Participants will receive paper copies of all of the relevant information to take home with them.

Participants will be randomized to receive education only, or varying combinations of the intervention components. Participants randomized to the education + MC1R testing arm will be asked to be provide a saliva sample. Saliva will be collected by study staff using a system for the collection, stabilization and transportation of DNA from saliva (e.g., Oragene DNA collection kits). Molecular evaluation will be performed at the genetic, enzymatic (protein and RNA), and cellular response levels to identify melanoma predisposition genes.
Visit 2: At visit 2 participants will receive education on the importance of skin cancer prevention behaviors (e.g., sunscreen, protective clothing) and avoiding tanning and sunburns. Participants will be provided with their personalized risk feedback based on a summary of their MC1R genetic testing results. All information will be delivered at this visit on a computer screen and additionally given to participants as a handout they can take home to review. When participants view their results on the computer screen, eye tracking will be used to assess participant response.

Visit 3: Visit 3 may be conducted remotely. At visit 3, participants will complete a follow-up assessment. After visit 3, participants will be offered the option to opt-in to receiving their raw genetic test report.
