This study evaluated the validity of a parental report measure of children's solar protection behaviors.
Fifty-eight children had skin color assessed twice with a colorimeter. Between measurement sessions, parents were interviewed by telephone to assess children's indoor-outdoor status and solar protection across 40 hourly intervals.
Parental report of child's indoor-outdoor status was significantly correlated with the colorimeter values, whereas the use of sunscreen and protective clothing was not.
This measure was feasible for assessing ultraviolet exposure in young children. The component that assessed the number of intervals spent outdoors evidenced predictive validity.
本研究评估了一项关于儿童防晒行为的家长报告测量方法的有效性。
58名儿童使用色度计对肤色进行了两次评估。在两次测量期间,通过电话采访家长,以评估儿童40个小时时间段内的室内外状态及防晒情况。
家长对孩子室内外状态的报告与色度计测量值显著相关,而防晒霜和防护服的使用情况则不然。
该测量方法对于评估幼儿紫外线暴露情况是可行的。评估户外停留时间段数量的部分具有预测效度。
