Short-wavelength sensitivity for the direct effects of light on alertness, vigilance, and the waking electroencephalogram in humans

To assess the wavelength-dependent sensitivity of the acute effects of ocular light exposure on alertness, performance, waking electroencephalogram (EEG), and cortisol. A between-subjects design was employed to compare the effects of exposure to 460-nm or 555-nm light for 6.5 hours during the biolog...
