| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated associations of the amount, quality, and timing of sleep, meal intake, and physical activity with circadian rhythm and subjective level of depressive symptoms in rotating shift workers. We found that sleep duration and timing and meal contents were associated with circadian rhythm or morningness-eveningness (i.e., the degree to which people prefer to be active in the morning or the evening) and depressive symptoms or positive mood. In addition, meal contents and sleep timing on days of night shifts were associated with changes in phase of circadian rhythm and changes in positive mood on day shifts before and after the night shifts. These results indicate the possibility that meal contents and sleep timing on night shifts may be one of the factors which can be used for preventing a phase delay in the circadian clock and depressive symptoms in rotating shift workers.
