Light to fight addiction
Our aim
Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) patients often suffer from disturbed sleep-wake patterns, and may experience challenges related to their self-control. As sleep problems, circadian misalignment, and reduced self-control have been implicated to increase alcohol consumption, this may lead to a negative spiral.The key objective of the current field study is to test the effectiveness of an integrative lighting intervention to support sleep and increase self-control among AUD patients in ambulant care, and, in turn, stabilize and/or reduce alcohol consumption and craving.
