Tailored Rhythmic Lighting Intervention
40 hertz (Hz) rhythmic lighting (RL) for a duration of 1 hour. The flicker frequency of the 40 Hz RL will be 40 Hz and the stimulation will be a square wave with a 50 % duty cycle (i.e., 12.5 milliseconds light- on and 12.5 milliseconds light-off). The RL will provide a 30 lux of red light on a vertical plane at the eye level.
Placebo Rhythmic Lighting Intervention
Placebo rhythmic light (RL) for a duration of 1 hour. In the placebo RL condition, the duty cycle will be delivered at randomly varying frequencies of 20 Hz and 50 Hz, specifically avoiding the frequency of 40 Hz. The placebo RL conditions will provide a 30 lux of red light on a vertical plane at the eye level.
