Knowledge of sun\u2010protection measures was also good: 97% correctly cited at least one method of photoprotection (clothing 80%, sunscreens 69%) and 97% declared that sun exposure should be reduced between 12\u00a0pm and 4\u00a0pm in France. Knowledge of melanoma was encouraging: 70% of respondents could define the disease accurately and 60% knew the\n                      <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">ABCDE<\/jats:styled-content>\n                      rule for early diagnosis. However, self\u2010tanning and sunbed use were considered by 25% and 13% of respondents, respectively, to provide protection from skin cancer. Although 43% of respondents (58% of high\u2010risk respondents) declared they had consulted a doctor at least once for a suspect skin lesion, their actual behaviour was less encouraging: 30% declared never or almost never protecting their skin; 25% declared regularly checking their skin for atypical nevi; 12% declared checking the entire skin surface. Declared behaviour was better in fair\u2010skin responders and those with a history of sunburn or skin cancer.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Awareness of melanoma, early\u2010diagnosis procedures and preventive behaviour has improved in the general French population since 1990.
