2 LITTERATURE REVIEW 2.1 Background The initial research question will form the foundation for this literature re- view, “focusing on the effects and influence that natural and artificial light can have on the human body”. As research connecting light and ED is limit- ed, the main objective will be to map out the known effects of light on the human body and subsequently connect this to AN and BN. In terms of establishing a ground of knowledge and insight on the topic, being able to elaborate on the initial problem statement, relevant areas con- cerning light therapy, mental illness and research in circadian rhythm (CR) has been investigated. The focus will be to map out positive findings from research in light therapy, establishing common ground. By investigating current research in the use of light in therapy and resent studies with patients connected to a variation of illnesses, findings can be linked to symptoms and behaviour in ED and overlaps can be discovered. Diurnal conditions like Jet Lag and sleep deprivation has also been taken into consideration. The following literature review will thus provide knowledge within essential research areas of lighting in psychiatry. Definitions of CR, biological clock, neural and hormonal definitions will be elaborated on, as well as ED, symp- toms and behaviour. Cognitive, emotional as well as somatic effects that can be connected to ED will be emphasised. Master thesis · MSc Lighting Design · Pernille Bech-Larsen · Fall 2017 15PDF Image | Healing with light
