Researchers find no solid evidence daylight saving time harms mental health
Original: No solid evidence daylight saving time affects mental health, researchers find
Researchers have reviewed the evidence and concluded there is no solid proof that daylight saving time affects mental health. The finding challenges widely repeated claims that clock changes trigger depression, anxiety or other psychological problems, and is likely to feed into ongoing debates in several countries about whether to keep or abolish the seasonal time shifts.
Why now: Debates about abolishing daylight saving time often cite mental health harms, so a study questioning that link draws attention.
