Our research demonstrated that the SPT modifications to include people with skin of color were neither culturally sensitive nor accurate as people of color were unable to respond to the questions about their experience with sunburn and tanning. People with skin of color did not report becoming red or pink but rather experienced "irritation" after sun exposure. In our recently reported work, we proposed a modification of the FST questions to allow people with skin of color to be able to respond (Survey questions 1and 2). We now wish to test the responses of people to these self-report questions and compare the responses with the melanin index as determined by spectrophotometry.(Survey question 9)
