Intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells and its role on Human Alertness
Summary:
The paper investigates the effects of exposure to cool (blue) light on alertness, performance and EEG brain waves, suggesting that exposure to cool light may enhance alertness and performance relative to warm light.
Categories
- Alertness and performance: The paper investigates the effects of exposure to cool (blue) light on alertness and performance, suggesting that exposure to cool light may enhance these factors.
- Cognitive function and memory: The paper measures alertness and performance through tasks related to memory and cognitive function, suggesting that exposure to cool light may enhance these factors.
- Lighting Design Considerations: The paper investigates the effects of different light settings (cool blue light vs. warm orange light) on human alertness and performance.
