简要总结
The purpose of this research study is to investigate the relationship between reminder messages sent via text and compliance with a daily morning light intervention designed to advance the circadian clock. Twenty healthy adults will be recruited to participate in a randomized, cross-over study where daily messages are, or are not, provided to remind participants to carry out the intervention.
