> those exposed to more than five “lux” of light each night had higher rates of depression Light can be measured, depression cannot. It barely even has a definition, let alone quantifiable rate. I'd sooner believe that auto-playing videos had a stronger link to depression than lux. Random theory... Maybe depressed people are highly sensitive to the world's problems/suffering both in immediate and wider environment, their antennae picks up this instability that manifests as internal trauma, anxiety etc. Someone should do an experiment to see if isolation for a few weeks influences depression rate; avoidance of all news, no phone, no internet, no people. Get ready for "Study finds extreme boredom effective anti-depressant".
