Research on Sleep and Health Using Activity Trackers
This study is looking at how sleep affects your physical and mental health. It's an observational study, meaning researchers will collect information without giving you any specific treatments. You would use a smartphone app (REFRESH app) to share data from your digital activity tracker about your sleep and activity. You'll also answer surveys about your health and sleep, and complete bi-weekly assessments of your mood and how well you're sleeping. The study aims to understand these connections in a large group of people who use activity trackers. To join, you need to be at least 18 years old, live in the United States, and be able to use the REFRESH app on your own smartphone. The study plans to enroll 100,000 people.
