摘要：

Six healthy male subjects aged 21-35 years participated in the present study. The subjects were exposed to dim light (150 lux) or bright light (3000 lux) at eye level, from 19.00 to 21.30 h for 5 days, Rectal temperature and wrist activity were monitored throughout the study period. Rectal temperature nadir was delayed significantly after che bright light exposure. Ease in sleep initiation and overall sleep duality, measured by questionnaire, were aggravated significantly by the evening bright light exposure. These results suggest that strong illumination at night may disturb nocturnal sleep.
