Study Overview
Brief Summary
We will conduct a cross-sectional survey from adults 18 years of age and older to examine consumer knowledge, attitudes and behavior towards aging skin.
Detailed Description
We will perform a cross-sectional survey study to understand the significance of age-related skin changes to consumers. We will recruit participants through ResearchMatch (a national free and secure online tool) and collect the following data:
Demographic information, including age, gender, race/ethnicity, geographic location, and yearly household income
- How do participants feel towards their own skin and age-related skin changes?
- Which aging-related skin changes are the most significant?
- What factors affect how participants feel towards their skin?
- What role do age-related skin changes play in other aspects of the participants' lives, such as their social and work life?
- What treatments are participants currently seeking, and what are their goals for these treatments?
- How much do they prioritize these treatments?
- What else are they hoping to do?
Using the demographic information, we will also analyze whether there are differences with:
- Age
- Gender identity
- Racial/ethnic identity
- Marital status
- Geographic location
- Yearly household income
