• Adolescents’ Electronic Media Use at Night, Sleep Disturbance, and Depressive Symptoms in the Smartphone Age (2014, background): “In a first study, Higuchi et al. (2005) studied young male adults who played an exciting video game late at night or performed simple tasks with low mental load in front of a screen as a control condition.”
• Electronic media use and sleep in school-aged children and adolescents: A review. (2010, background): “Third, evening exposure to bright light from television or computer screens may suppress melatonin and consequently delay the circadian rhythm [63].”
• Mobile phone use and stress, sleep disturbances, and symptoms of depression among young adults - a prospective cohort study (2011, background): “In a laboratory study [42], computer gaming before going to bed increased sleep latency and heart rate, and decreased subjective sleepiness and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, compared to controlled conditions.”
