Abstract: College students have been drastically impacted by COVID-19 with many struggling to adjust to safety requirements. Past research revealed that increased knowledge about COVID-19 does not correlate with increased odds of wearing a face covering, which could impact college students' risk (Clements, 2020). The current research examined attitudes and perceptions of college students regarding face coverings to determine activities they perceived as higher or lower risk. This single-point cross-sectional design measured face covering habits and perceptions among 1,221 students across two institutions of higher learning. Results indicated students believe face coverings are protective, but it is unknown whether their value is in protecting themselves or others. Students reported increased confidence wearing face coverings in social settings. Information and data collected can be further analyzed to explore face covering perceptions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
