- Abstract
The article presents a study that aims to examine differences in the incidence and likelihood of sunburn to adults by geographical location in Queensland. Results show that 32.8% of all respondents were sunburnt once with 17% reporting multiple sunburns in the preceding year. It also reveals that people living in non-metropolitan areas were more likely to be sunburnt once compared with people living in metropolitan areas.
