Abstract

Introduction: The growing rate of nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC) and melanoma has been a great challenge for global health system. The present research aims to determine sailors' protective behaviors against the risks of sunlight and skin cancer in Iran.

Materials and methods: The present research was qualitative in type, and its data were collected from August to December 2019. To this aim, 23 participants were recruited with whom semistructured interviews were held. The data collection continued until data saturation, and the interviews were coded in MAXQDA 10. Conventional content analysis was used to analyze the qualitative data.

Results: Analysis of sailors' perceptions and experiences revealed 7 categories: protective behaviors, hard personal and familial conditions, social interactions, poor social support, feeling of satisfaction, self-care, and fear.

Conclusion: Sailors are prone to skin cancer due to their specific work conditions. Perceptions and determinants of skin cancer and protective behaviors against sunlight were identified among sailors. Promotion of protective behaviors and beliefs that impeded preventive behaviors are among issues that require special attention.

在伊朗的一项定性研究中，水手在渔点对阳光和皮肤癌风险的保护行为的决定因素。

简介:非黑色素瘤皮肤癌(NMSC)和黑色素瘤的发病率不断上升，已成为全球卫生系统面临的巨大挑战。目前的研究旨在确定伊朗水手对阳光和皮肤癌风险的保护行为。材料与方法:本研究为定性研究，数据采集时间为2019年8月- 12月。为此目的，招募了23名参与者，与他们进行了半结构化面试。数据收集一直持续到数据饱和，访谈用MAXQDA 10编码。定性资料采用常规含量分析。结果:对水手的感知和体验进行分析，发现了7个类别:保护行为、个人和家庭条件恶劣、社会交往、社会支持不良、满足感、自我照顾和恐惧。结论:水手因其特定的工作条件，易患皮肤癌。在水手中发现了皮肤癌的认知和决定因素以及对阳光的保护行为。促进阻碍预防行为的保护行为和信念是需要特别注意的问题之一。
