这项单臂先导干预研究评估了太阳安全伙伴的可行性和初步影响，这是一项以夫妇为中心的干预措施，旨在改善防晒行为。数据收集于2015年8月至2016年3月期间的新泽西州。参与者是从网上招募的61对报告防晒水平较低的夫妇。在提供在线同意后，夫妇们会收到邮寄的小册子，并参加电话会议，讨论当前的防晒水平，制定改善防晒的行动计划，并讨论相互帮助改善防晒的方法。一份电话摘要随后寄出。通过研究入组、电话参与、随访调查完成情况和干预评估来评估可行性。参与者完成了一项基线调查，以及干预后一个月和六个月的调查，评估防晒以及个人和以关系为中心的防晒态度和做法。结果表明，接受试验的比例为22.1%。电话参与率很高（84%），干预措施得到了很好的评价。在完成电话和随访的51对夫妇中，干预改善了防晒行为。防晒益处、光老化风险和以关系为中心的态度和行为增加了。以夫妻为中心的干预措施有望改善防晒效果。建议未来的研究采用随机临床试验以及提高研究参与率的策略。据报道，情侣们对彼此防晒的支持有所增加。夫妻们都明白防晒对他们的伴侣和夫妻关系有什么好处。以夫妻为中心的干预措施可以促进更好的防晒行为。
This single arm pilot intervention study evaluated the feasibility and preliminary impact of a Sun Safe Partners, which is a couple-focused intervention targeting improved sun protection behavior. Data were collected from New Jersey between August 2015 and March 2016. Participants were 61 couples reporting low levels of sun protection recruited from an online panel. After providing online consent, couples received mailed pamphlets and participated in a call where they discussed current levels of sun protection, made an Action Plan to improve sun protection, and discussed ways of assisting one another in improving sun protection. A call summary was mailed afterwards. Feasibility was assessed by study enrollment, call participation, follow-up survey completion, and intervention evaluation. Participants completed a baseline survey, and a one month and six month post-intervention survey assessing sun protection as well as individual and relationship-centered sun protection attitudes and practices. Results indicated that acceptance into the trial was 22.1%. Call participation was high (84%) and the intervention was well-evaluated. Among the 51 couples who completed the call and a follow-up, the intervention improved sun protection behaviors. Sun protection benefits, photo-aging risk, and relationship-centered attitudes and practices increased. A couple-focused intervention shows promise for improving sun protection. Future studies using a randomized clinical trial as well as strategies to improve study participation are recommended. Couples reported increases in their support for one another's sun protection. Couples understood how sun protection benefits their partners and the relationship. Couple-focused interventions can promote better sun protection behavior.
