Abstract
Undergraduate students from a large public university in California were surveyed about how they view the impacts of wearing a face mask. The results suggested that the perceived impacts were generally neutral or slightly positive. Negative attitudes toward face masks and conservative political beliefs predicted greater perceived negative impacts.
