Abstract
Vitamin D deficiency or inadequacy has many influencing factors. Previous studies have found that sunlight exposure and dietary intake are the most critical factors. In addition, individuals' knowledge, attitude, practice (KAP), and other social or environmental factors play significant roles in the genesis and development of vitamin D deficiency or inadequacy. This article summarized vitamin D related KAP, investigation tools, and the association between individual vitamin D level and KAP, aiming to provide a basis for developing public health programs and improving vitamin D level in general population.
