Jewish men are commanded to cover their head in respect to God at all times, especially while praying, or at a religious event or service. The main form of head cover is a Kippah, or Yalmukah. However, only Orthodox Jews wear Kippahs at all times. Most Reform, Conservative, and some Modern Orthodox Jews do not wear kippahs at all times, and only wear them while at Temple, or another religious event.

The hats are called yarmulkes or kippot (the singular is yarmulke and kippah). Yarmulke is Yiddish, kippah is Hebrew. Tradition holds that a Jew should cover his head when saying a blessing, and a kippah is pretty close to being the minimal head covering. Many observant Jews wear a kippah all the time because Jewish tradition asks for blessings before all kinds of activities.
