This is: Paper is published! 100,000 lumens to treat seasonal affective disorder, published by Fabienne on August 20, 2022 on The Effective Altruism Forum. Let’s give people with winter depression (seasonal affective disorder, SAD) LOTS OF LIGHT and see what happens! This is an update to my previous post that said that our preprint is out. :) The paper was accepted with very minor changes, so you might already know what it says if you saw the first post. Here is the link to the paper: Here is the twitter thread explaining the paper: Again, Jan Brauner and I are very thankful to the LessWrong/EA communities, which have inspired this first study (there will be more) and through which we have found funding. In particular, thank you Eliezer Yudkowsky for helping us find funding and for inspiring the study with Inadequate Equilibria, David Chapman for inspiring us with these two posts in the Meaningness blog, Raemon for inspiring us with this LessWrong post and everyone who discussed with us setups they have tried.
