Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate the affects of wearing mask on learning ability.
Methods: A total of 90 college students were included in this study. The participants were divided into three groups: group 1, KF94 mask(n=30); group 2, Dental mask(n=30), and group 3, No mask(n=30). All groups performed cardiovascular function and class concentration test before and after 4 hours of class. All data were analyzed using SPSS window 22.0 version.
Results: In this study, the difference in cardiovascular function was statistically significant in SpO2 and heart rate(p＜.05).
As a result of post-hoc analysis, SpO2 was lower the Dental mask group and the KF mask wearing group than the non-mask wearing group, and lower the KF mask wearing group than the Dental mask group (p<.05). The heart rate was significantly higher in the KF94 mask-wearing group than in the Dental mask-wearing group and the mask-wearing group(p<.05). The difference in class concentration was statistically significant(p＜.05). class concentration was lower the Dental mask group and the KF mask wearing group than the non-mask wearing group, and lower the KF mask wearing group than the Dental mask group(p<.05).
Conclusion: In order to improve students' concentration in class in the current situation of schools where face-to-face classes are becoming active again, it is suggested to remove the mask or wear a low-resistance mask if there are no individual health problems.
