We drew on a large sample of repeated data \u2013 nearly a million survey responses from 49,000 participants over two years,&#8221; Dr. Feifei Bu, lead author and member of UCL\u2019s Department of Behavioral Science &amp; Health, said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p data-v-438398f6=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxweather.com\/lifestyle\/the-history-of-daylight-saving-time\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>WHAT IS THE HISTORY OF DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME?<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p data-v-438398f6=\"\">Researchers suggested that influences such as physiological processes, environmental factors and the ability to conduct daily activities all play a role in people\u2019s well-being.<\/p>\n<p data-v-438398f6=\"\">Environmental factors include sunlight, temperature, noise and air pollution \u2013 all of which are thought to play an underlying role in a person\u2019s mental health.<\/p>\n<p data-v-438398f6=\"\">&#8220;While these findings are intriguing, they need to be replicated in other studies that fully account for this potential bias. If validated, this could have important practical implications. Researchers investigating people\u2019s mental health and wellbeing should take into account the time of day people respond. Mental health support services might consider adjusting resources to match fluctuating needs across the day\u2014for instance, prioritizing late-night availability,&#8221; Bu stated.<\/p>\n<p data-v-438398f6=\"\">In the longer term, researchers said there was a clear correlation between more positive occurrences happening over the weekend and all seasons outside of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxweather.com\/category\/winter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">winter<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p data-v-438398f6=\"\">&#8220;There are seasonal patterns in signals of anger, anxiety, sadness, and fatigue on social media, with anxiety peaking in spring and autumn and sadness peaking in winter.17 Alongside this, research has explored seasonal MHW [mental health and well-being] variation. It has repeatedly been proposed that mental health is worst in winter and best in summer, with the extreme case being seasonal affective disorder,&#8221; the study stated.<\/p>\n<p data-v-438398f6=\"\">Despite its findings, the study&#8217;s authors emphasized that the research did not establish a direct cause-and-effect relationship, which could be explored in future investigations.<\/p>\n<div class=\"featured featured-video video-ct\">\n<div class=\"video-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"info\">\n<div class=\"caption\">\n<p class=\"sub-text\">Dr. Brian Chen of the Cleveland Clinic Sleep Disorders Center spoke about the ways changing our clocks by an hour can affect our sleep schedules.
