Understanding Your Results
About Your Chronotype Score:
Your chronotype is influenced by genetics (~50%), age, sex, and light exposure habits. It represents
your biological tendency, not a fixed destiny. With consistent light exposure and sleep timing, you
can shift your rhythm up to 1-2 hours over several weeks.
About Social Jet Lag:
The mismatch between your biological clock and social schedule creates chronic stress on your
system. Research shows each hour of social jet lag is associated with increased risks for metabolic
issues, mood disturbances, and reduced cognitive performance. Even partial alignment helps.
Key Circadian Anchors:
Your Core Body Temperature Minimum (CBTmin) is estimated to occur around โ. This is the anchor point for your entire circadian system. Light
exposure after this time advances your rhythm (makes you earlier), while light before delays it
(makes you later).
