The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued recommendations for school programs to reduce skin cancer.
Personnel at US secondary schools were surveyed to describe sun protection policy and education before the CDC recommendations.
School principals or other personnel at 484 secondary schools in 27 cities responded to a telephone survey in January and February 2002 (response rate = 31%).
A sun protection policy was reported at 10% of the schools, but sun protection education occurred at nearly all schools (96%). Policies were more prevalent in regions with high ultraviolet radiation (P < .0001), but education was not. Many personnel were willing to adopt a policy (41%) and interested in obtaining a sun safety curriculum (96%).
Self-report measures, nonresponse, and new schools not in the sampling frame.
Sun protection was a low policy priority for US schools. Sun safety education was prevalent, but written materials were used infrequently. A substantial proportion of school personnel were receptive to the CDC's advice.
美国疾病控制与预防中心(CDC)发布了关于学校项目以减少皮肤癌的建议。
对美国中学的工作人员进行调查,以描述在CDC发布建议之前的防晒政策和教育情况。
2002年1月和2月,对27个城市的484所中学的校长或其他工作人员进行了电话调查(回复率 = 31%)。
10%的学校报告有防晒政策,但几乎所有学校(96%)都开展了防晒教育。政策在紫外线辐射高的地区更为普遍(P <.0001),但教育情况并非如此。许多工作人员愿意采用一项政策(41%),并对获得一份阳光安全课程感兴趣(96%)。
自我报告措施、无回复情况以及抽样框架中未涵盖的新学校。
防晒在美国学校的政策中优先级较低。阳光安全教育很普遍,但书面材料使用较少。相当一部分学校工作人员接受CDC的建议。
