INTRODUCTION: There is currently an increase in cases of melanoma and nonmelanoma skin cancer in our country, mainly due to being exposed to high levels of UV rays, thus requiring constant protection of the population, this increase is related to the low level of knowledge and attitudes of photoprotection and of the risks produced. OBJECTIVE: To determine the relationship between sociodemographic factors and knowledge, attitudes and photoprotection practices in human medicine interns at the Central Military Hospital Lima 2022- 2023. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A cross-sectional, analytical study was performed, applying a validated survey with a study population made up of 105 Human Medicine interns of the Central Military Hospital from 2022-2023, of which it was possible to survey all of them, performing the analysis of data with a confidence interval of 95%. RESULTS: Of the 105 inmates, it was found that the majority had a high level of 97.1% (102) in knowledge, 81.0% (85) in attitudes and a medium level of 68.6% (72) in practice. The sociodemographic factors that had a significant relationship with the attitudes were the gender and the city of origin (p=0.022 and p=0.035 respectively, in the same way that the gender had the level of practices (p=0.043). CONCLUSION: There is an association between the gender and the city of origin with the photoprotection attitudes and practices in medical interns of the Central Military Hospital in the city of Lima.
