Abstract：
:Agriculture is one of the major sources of employment and income in many countries, especially in developing countries. Farmers are exposed to numerous harmful factors such as sunlight and ultraviolet radiation. These factors contribute to multiple diseases including skin cancer. The aim of this study was to analyze the farmer's preventive behavior against sunlight using the Health Belief Model (HBM). This descriptive study was conducted by survey methodology and a questionnaire. The population of the research was composed of farmers in Kermanshah Province (N = 126,900). The sample size was determined as 382 farmers using the Krejcie and Morgan table. The validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by relevant professors and experts, and the reliability was confirmed through a pilot study and the calculation of Cronbach's alpha coefficient, which was estimated at 0.70-0.83. Findings showed that the HBM structures had a significant effect on the farmer's preventive behavior, so that the perceived barriers, susceptibility, severity, benefits, self-efficacy, and cues to action have the strongest impact on the farmer's preventive behavior against sunlight. The results illustrated that components of the HBM were appropriate predictors for farmers' preventive behavior against sunlight.
