Sleep Circadian Rhythm Executive Function Emotion Regulation

Quick Navigation

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The proposed project aims to disentangle the impact of evening light exposure emitted from tablet devices from the impact of arousing media content on children's sleep regulation, circadian physiology and next-day emotion regulation and executive functioning.

Official Title

Experimental Effects of Light and Content from Evening Screen Media Use on Children's Sleep, Executive Functioning, and Emotion Regulation

Inclusion Criteria	Exclusion Criteria
* children between 8.0 and 11.9 year old * Tanner stage 1 and 2 * live with their parent(s) (biological or legal guardian at least 50% of the time and has a primary role of caring for the child). * Children who sleep between 8.5 to 11 hours per night habitually * Children must sleep alone most nights * parent and child able to communicate and read and write in English * The child does not have to have access to a mobile device (tablet or Phone), but if they do, the primary device they use has to be an a) Android OS ≥5.0 either used only by the study child or shared with others, b) Amazon Fire OS ≥5.0 that only the child uses or c) an Apple iOS ≥14.0 that only the child uses. * If the child's primary device is a Android or Amazon Fired device, the parent and child agree to install Chronicle App (Android or Amazon).
