Understanding attitudes toward hygiene mask use in Japanese daily life by using a repeated cross-sectional survey.

CONCLUSIONS: Men's attitudes in 2009 were different from those in 2012 and 2015. However, women's major attitudes were consistent in all 3 years. For both sexes, the most commonly reported problem was humidity in all 3 years. It is expected that more comfortable masks for daily use will result from improving humidity characteristics.
