Abstract
Retinal light exposure is modulated by our behavior, and light exposure patterns show strong variations within and between persons. Yet, most laboratory studies investigated influences of constant lighting settings on human daytime functioning and sleep. In this presentation, I will discuss a series of studies investigating light-induced moderations in sleepiness, vitality and sleep, with a strong focus on the temporal dynamics in these effects, and the bi-directional relation between persons' light profiles and their behavior.
