Morning larks vs night owls: does chronotype shape balance and brain power?

NCT ID NCT07691866

First seen Jul 09, 2026 · Last updated Jul 10, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at whether a person's chronotype — being a morning person or an evening person — influences how their balance and cognitive skills (like attention and memory) work together. Researchers will test healthy adults aged 18-35 using surveys, balance tasks, and attention tests. The goal is to understand if the time of day affects these abilities differently depending on chronotype.
