摘要：T he World Health Organization (WHO) suggests that recreational exposure to ultra- violet (UV) radiation, including exposure to the sun and a history of sunburn, are the primary causes of all melanomas, leading to skin cancer (WHO, 2012). Research has suggested that regular sun protection use, during the first 18 years of a person's life, can reduce the risk of non-melanoma skin cancer by 78% (Jarrett, Sharp and McLelland, 1993; Severi et al., 2002). Dobbinson et al. (2008) suggest that few studies have targeted adolescents' sun protection behaviours, and that previous interventions have typically used educational strategies which have been shown to have limited effect on sun protection behaviours
