Abstract:ObjectiveTo investigate the knowledge, attitude and behaviors of the health effects of ultraviolet radiation and sun protection. MethodsThe subjects were from the rural area of Kuandian county, Dandong city and Funshun county, Fushun city in Liaoning. A self-made questionnaire was used to investigate the knowledge, attitude and behaviors of solar ultraviolet. ResultsA total of 316 subjects were involved in this survey. Most of the subjects knew that ultraviolet was harmful to human health, but less half of the subjects knew the benefit of ultraviolet. Few subjects knew the eye damage that can result from ultraviolet (3.80% cataract and 0.63% pterygium). 69.49% of men and 53.33% of women adopted sun protection for 'preventing sunburn'. The most popular sun protection behaviors were 'wearing long-sleeve clothes' and 'sun hat'. ConclusionsThere was a lack of knowledge about ultraviolet among people in rural areas of Liaoning. People paid little attention to sun protection.
