新的研究表明，儿童时期过度的阳光照射会导致日后患皮肤癌。孩子们很少在户外戴宽边帽，尽管这些帽子对孩子们脸上最容易被晒伤的地方提供了最好的保护。目前的研究探讨了四年级学生在学校外和在学校以外的时间评估他们的防晒行为。这项研究利用了2006年秋季为佛罗里达儿童防晒（SPF）项目收集的基线数据。简单来说，防晒计划是一项小组随机试验，目的是测试以学校为基础的干预措施在促进防晒方面的效果，特别是帽子的使用。该项目针对佛罗里达州希尔斯伯勒县学校的所有四年级学生。在任何干预活动开始之前，在基线收集本研究中报告的数据。大约2,086名四年级学生完成了自我报告调查，评估防晒行为。2006年秋季，在佛罗里达的坦帕，经过培训的研究助理在五周内对体育课进行了99次直接观察。总体而言，自我报告的各种防晒方法的使用率较低。大约三分之一的学生报告说，他们在离家上学前涂防晒霜（32.8%）或戴太阳镜（32.3%）。只有一小部分学生在上学前穿长袖（15.0%）或戴有帽檐的帽子（16.4%）。此外，很少有学生在户外而不是在学校时戴宽边帽（16.4%）。学生在上学期间平均每周在户外活动59.1分钟，在阳光照射高峰期为35.5分钟。一般来说，女学生和西班牙裔，非裔美国人，和其他种族和民族的学生更有可能在学校实践防晒行为比白色或男学生。那些在强制性校服政策的学校上学的学生不太可能戴有帽檐的帽子。一次晒伤会增加孩子日后患皮肤癌的风险。在学校的阳光照射对学生的健康构成了重大风险，需要做更多的工作来推广使用宽边帽和限制学生的阳光照射。宽檐帽最有希望帮助学生保护颈部最容易晒伤的脸部。需要做更多的工作，以促进帽子的使用和限制阳光照射，而孩子们在学校。
Emerging studies suggest that excessive sun exposure in childhood contributes to the development of skin cancer later in life. Children rarely wear a wide-brimmed hat when outside although these hats offer the best protection to the areas on the face where children are most likely to be sunburned. The current study explores 4th grade student assessment of their sun protection behaviors outside at school and at times other than when they are at school. This study utilized baseline data collected in the Fall of 2006 for the Sun Protection for Florida’s Children (SPF) project. In brief, the SPF project is a group randomized trial to test the effectiveness of a school based intervention promoting sun protection in general, and hat use in particular. The project targets all 4th grade students in Hillsborough County Schools, FL. The data reported in this study were collected at baseline before any intervention activities was initiated. Approximately 2,086 4th grade students completed self-report surveys evaluating sun protection behaviors. Trained research assistants carried out 99 direct observations of physical education classes over a five week period during Fall 2006 in Tampa, Florida. In general, the self-reported use of various methods of sun protection was low. Approximately one third of students reported that they wore sunscreen (32.8%) or sunglasses (32.3%) before leaving home for school. Only a small percentage of students wore long sleeves (15.0%) or a hat with a brim (16.4%) before leaving for school. In addition, few students wore a hat with a wide brim when outside but not at school (16.4%). Students spent an average of 59.1 minutes per week outdoors while attending school and 35.5 minutes during peak sun exposure. In general, female students and Hispanic, African American, and students of other racial and ethnic groups were more likely to practice sun protection behaviors at school than white or male students. Students who attended schools with a mandatory uniform policy were less likely to wear hats with brims. A single sunburn heightens a child’s risk of developing skin cancer later on in life. Sun exposure at school poses a significant risk to student health and more needs to be done to promote the use of a wide-brimmed hat and limiting student sun exposure. A wide brimmed hat shows the most promise in helping students to protect the face at neck areas where sunburns are most likely to develop. More needs to be done to promote hat use and limiting sun exposure while children are at school.
