Researchers find no solid evidence daylight saving time harms mental health
Original: No solid evidence daylight savings time affects mental health, researchers find
Researchers say there is no solid evidence that daylight saving time transitions affect mental health, challenging widely shared claims that clock changes trigger depression, anxiety or other psychological problems. The finding, reported by The Guardian, pushes back against popular assumptions about the health effects of switching clocks twice a year, a topic that resurfaces whenever countries debate abolishing the practice.
Why now: Daylight saving clock changes periodically prompt public debate and worry about health effects, and this new research directly challenges those claims.
