Summary
This paper investigates the effect of short-term colored-light exposure on cerebral hemodynamics and oxygenation, and systemic physiological activity, finding that different colors of light have different effects on these factors.
Categories
Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses how different colors of light affect cerebral hemodynamics and oxygenation, which are related to cognitive function and memory.
Alertness and performance: The paper discusses how different colors of light can affect systemic physiological activity, which can influence alertness and performance.
Phototherapy: The paper investigates the effects of short-term colored-light exposure, a form of phototherapy, on cerebral and systemic physiology.
Lighting Design Considerations: The findings of the paper could have implications for lighting design, as different colors of light have different effects on cerebral and systemic physiology.
