| Abstract: | Face cover use by the overall population for restricting the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic has been causing arguments across the globe, however progressively suggested, and the capability of this mediation is not surely known. This paper addressed the use of facemasks among the students of Federal Polytechnic Ado-Ekiti, Nigeria. Three factors investigated to be predictors for use of facemasks in the institution are gender of the students, prior keeping to the rule of social distancing and their various schools or faculties. The log-linear model was employed in order measure the students’ tendencies on the use of facemasks and relationship among the variables. Proportional allocation sampling technique was used to carry out the survey on the students from four faculties in the institution. The variable facemasks has three ordered levels (always, sometimes, never) upon which frequencies were predicted from the identified variables. Data collected revealed that 47% of the students claimed to always use facemasks while 24% claimed they have never used it. Results revealed that there is a strong relationship between use of facemasks and those who keep social distancing rules and faculties (schools) at 5% level having p-values 3.42e-12 and 0.018 respectively. Results of analysis on three-factor terms shows that model (GFS, GD, FD, DS) having residual deviance value 17.4 on 17 degree of freedom and p = 0.43 gave the closest fitted values to the observed frequencies, and consequently the best model. This suggests that the institution should continue to encourage the students to maintain social distancing in order have reasonable number of them complying with the rule of facemasks usage. |
