| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this study was to determine if there were differences in the lifestyle (sleep, nap, food, light environment) of nurses before, during and after night shifts among chronotypes. As a result, morningness-types were significantly higher burdened by nighttime shifts than eveningness-types, and the proportion of those who took a nap during the nighttime shift was also higher for Mmorningness-ypes than for eveningness-types. On the other hand, the desired nap time during the night shift was significantly longer for eveningness-types than for morningness-types, and the fatigue level after the night shift was also significantly higher for eveningness-types than morningness-types.
These results indicated that the issues and approaches to adapting to shiftwork are different for morningness- and eveningness- types, and suggested the need for measures to adapt to shiftwork taking into account the lifestyle of each chronotype.

本研究より交代制勤務における夜勤前後での生活には朝型と夜型で有意な差があることが明らかになった。本結果は夜勤適応における課題や実践してる工夫がクロノタイプで異なることを示唆している。そのため、国内外の交代制勤務ガイドラインで紹介されている夜勤適応策は、クロノタイプを考慮した実践を提示する必要性が示された。また本研究によりクロノタイプごとの交代制勤務適応への課題や生活上の特徴が明らかになったことで、今後、クロノタイプごとで具体的にどのような対応策や介入が有効なのかの示唆が得られた。
