Consent At the baseline assessment, all participants were provided with a written consent form, given explanation of study in detail, and had the opportunity to ask questions. After providing informed consent, participants began the baseline assessments. Pre-Treatment Assessment Procedures First, all participants were screened with Structured Clinical Interview for the Diagnosis of Axis I Mental Disorders (SCID I) modules to confirm they do not have an active full threshold axis I diagnosis. Next, participants completed the demographic questionnaire, the NESHI, the NESS, the BDI, the MEQ, and the ISI. Height and weight were measured and BMI was calculated. Please see Table 3 for a schedule of assessment administration. Once baseline assessments were completed, participants were given instructions on how to use the light for therapy. They were instructed to use the light for 60 minutes each day for 14- days and were sent home with the light box. In order to ensure each participant was consistent with their light therapy, they were asked to phone, text message, or email the researcher each day when they completed their treatment each day. They were also be asked to keep a daily log of their sleep and wake times, food intake, and to provide mood and anxiety ratings. Anticipated time for baseline testing was approximately 2 hours and took place in the laboratory of Dr. Jennifer Lundgren. Post-Treatment Assessment Procedures Upon completion of 14-days of light therapy, each participant was asked to return to the lab in order to return the light box and to complete the following post-treatment questionnaires: NESS, BDI, and ISI. They were asked to return the light box and daily food/mood records at their final appointment. Weight was also assessed at the end of treatment. 34
