DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application fits the broad Challenge Area (01): Behavior, Behavior Change, and Prevention (01); and specific Challenge Topic 01-CA-103: The role of health behaviors in cancer prevention. Skin cancer incidence is rising more rapidly than any other cancer, much of the risk is acquired prior to age 20, and Coloradoans are particularly at risk because of high altitude, sunny climate, and an outdoor lifestyle. While prior skin cancer prevention intervention research in adolescent populations has achieved some success, changes in behavior have been modest and a greater variety of approaches is needed to reach and be successful in all adolescent populations. The proposed project will take into account developmental issues relevant to young adolescents; focus on normative mechanisms and how they influence sun protection and tanning behaviors; enhance our conceptual understanding of how norms influence skin cancer risk behaviors among adolescents; utilize a narrative approach that has been successful in adolescent drug resistance research; and incorporate a participatory approach that will lead to an intervention that is locally relevant and engaging for adolescents. This will be accomplished through six research aims, utilizing two theoretical frameworks, Theory of Planned Behavior and Theory of Normative Social Behavior. Specific Aim 1 involves conducting qualitative "elicitation" interviews with adolescents to determine attitudes and norms related to both tanning and sun protection, and to identify narratives that could be developed into videos in Aim 4. In Specific Aim 2 we will develop a structured questionnaire to assess attitudes and norms related to sun protection and tanning, based on results from Aim 1. Specific Aim 3 includes administering the structured questionnaire to a sample of 300 adolescents age 10-14 and conducting analysis following the Theory of Planned Behavior and Theory of Normative Social Behavior to determine the relative importance of attitudes and norms on sun protection and tanning behavioral intentions. Specific Aim 4 will bring together the quantitative findings from Aim 3 with the narratives (personal stories) elicited in Aim 1 in the production of video narratives by local video arts students using a youth participatory process. In Specific Aim 5 we will collect both qualitative (focus group) and quantitative (questionnaire) data to assess the acceptability of the video narratives and the short-term cognitive changes associated with viewing the videos. In Specific Aim 6, the youth-produced videos will be disseminated through popular social networking Internet sites and email, and we will observe the reach of this method of dissemination. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE STATEMENT Adolescents represent an important group for skin cancer prevention. Sun exposure prior to the age of 20 has a strong relationship with development of skin cancer later in life. Additionally, skin cancer risk behaviors, such as failure to use sun protection and intentional tanning, increase during these years. While previous research has shown some success in changing sun protection and tanning behaviors in adolescents, a broader range of strategies is needed in order to reach all adolescent groups. The proposed research will focus specifically on the influence of norms on sun protection and tanning behaviors, and use a combination of qualitative and quantitative research with a youth participatory approach to develop, pilot test, and disseminate video narratives aimed at increasing sun protection and reducing tanning.

描述（由申请人提供）： 此应用程序适合广泛的挑战领域（01）：行为，行为改变和预防（01）；和特定的挑战主题01-CA-103：健康行为在预防癌症中的作用。皮肤癌发病率的速度比任何其他癌症都更快，大部分风险是在20岁之前获得的，并且由于高海拔，阳光晴朗的气候和户外生活方式，科罗拉多人尤其处于风险状态。尽管在青春期人群中进行的先前的皮肤癌预防干预研究取得了一些成功，但行为的变化却是适度的​​，并且在所有青少年人群中都需要采取更多的方法来实现并取得成功。拟议的项目将考虑与年轻青少年有关的发展问题；专注于规范机制及其如何影响防晒和晒黑行为；增强我们对规范如何影响青少年皮肤癌风险行为的概念理解；利用一种在青少年耐药性研究中成功的叙事方法；并结合了一种参与式方法，该方法将导致一项与青少年相关且引人入胜的干预措施。这将通过六个研究目的实现，利用两个理论框架，计划行为理论和规范社会行为理论。具体目的1涉及与青少年进行定性的“引起”访谈，以确定与晒黑和防晒的态度和规范，并确定可以在目标4中开发成视频的叙述。在特定目标2中，我们将开发一个结构化的问卷，以评估与Sun Prosement和Tanning相关的概念，包括Sunnning和Tanning，包括AIM 1的构造，AIM 1的构造。目标是AIM 1。青少年年龄10-14岁，并按照计划的行为理论和规范社会行为理论进行分析，以确定态度和规范对防晒和晒黑行为意图的相对重要性。特定的AIM 4将汇集AIM 3的定量发现以及AIM 1中在AIM 1中引起的叙述（个人故事），并使用青年参与过程在当地视频艺术学生制作视频叙事中。在特定目标5中，我们将收集定性（焦点小组）和定量（问卷）数据，以评估视频叙事的可接受性以及与观看视频相关的短期认知变化。在特定的目标6中，将通过流行的社交网站和电子邮件传播青年的视频，我们将观察到这种传播方法的影响力。公共卫生相关性声明青少年代表了预防皮肤癌的重要群体。 20岁之前的日光与以后的皮肤癌发展与皮肤癌的发展有着牢固的关系。此外，在这些年中，皮肤癌风险行为（例如不使用防晒和故意晒黑）会增加。尽管以前的研究表明，在改变青少年的防晒和晒黑行为方面，需要更广泛的策略才能接触到所有青少年群体。拟议的研究将专门关注规范对防晒和晒黑行为的影响，并将定性和定量研究与青年参与式方法结合起来，开发，试点测试和传播旨在增加防晒和减少晒黑的视频叙事。
