对9名季节性情感障碍女性患者进行了一项交叉对照研究，仅在晚上暴露于明亮与昏暗的灯光下。结果表明，强光具有显著的抗抑郁作用。昏暗的灯光没有产生一致的可观察到的效果。这些结果支持了早期的研究，证明了早晨和晚上给予明亮光线的功效。光的抗抑郁作用不是由睡眠剥夺介导的，只有早上的时间对反应并不重要。
A cross-over comparison study of exposure, in the evenings only, to bright versus dim light was carried out on nine female patients with seasonal affective disorder. A significant antidepressent effect of the bright lights was shown. No consistent observable effects were produced by the dim lights. These results support earlier studies demonstrating the efficacy of bright light given morning and evening. The antidepressant effect of light is not mediated by sleep deprivation, and the only morning hours are not crucial for a response.
