Introduction
Light exposure is an important environmental factor that significantly influences human health and well-being1. In addition to its central role in vision, light acts as the primary zeitgeber, synchronising the endogenous circadian rhythms with the natural light-dark cycle2. However, the prevalence of artificial lighting and modern indoor lifestyles can disrupt this synchronization, leading to various health issues due to altered daily patterns of light exposure3–6. The non-visual effects of light involve specialized photoreceptors in the eye and are mainly mediated by the intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs), which are most sensitive to short-wavelength light7,8.
Analysing real-world light exposure and related behaviours is key for a better understanding of and potential reduction in any negative health consequences arising from light at the ‘wrong’ time, while enhancing the acute and short-term benefits of light exposure, such as boosts in alertness and improved sleep quality. Although extensive laboratory research has characterised the effects of light under controlled conditions, these light stimuli rarely reflect the light exposures encountered under real-world conditions9,10. Empirical studies of light exposure in daily life using wearable light loggers are essential for providing additional information about exposure patterns and their potential consequences for health.
Wearable light loggers and dosimeters have emerged as valuable tools for objectively measuring personal light exposure in real-world settings11–14. These devices can capture spectral information across the visible range and output various light exposure metrics, including visual quantities (e.g. photopic illuminance) and non-visual quantities (e.g. alpha-opic irradiance, melanopic equivalent daylight illuminance, abbreviation as melanopic EDI)15,16, which in turn can be aggregated into relevant summary metrics17–19. Objective measurements can be supplemented by subjective tools that capture light-exposure-related behaviours, providing a more comprehensive understanding of how individuals interact with their light environment20.
Despite a growing interest in personal light exposure, more extensive data is needed from diverse populations and geographical locations to fully understand variability in light exposure patterns and their health implications. To date, most research has focused on populations in Europe or North America17,21. First, comparisons with other regions of the world demonstrate the differences between countries, cultures and climate conditions, as a recent study on light exposure in Malaysia and Switzerland has shown22. Datasets from other regions are less common and even fewer are publicly available, which limits our ability to assess generalisability and identify population-specific factors that influence light exposure and its effects on human health. Light exposure data collected in Ghana provides an opportunity to study how different environmental conditions, cultural practices and daily routines correlate with the light exposure patterns. This contributes to a broader understanding of the diversity of human physiological responses to light, particularly within the African population.
This data note describes a dataset on personal light exposure collected in Ghana. The primary objective of the dataset was to characterize personal light exposure patterns in Ghana and investigate the real-world determinants of participant’s exposure. The use of a standardized, multi-site study protocol23 ensures that the data are comparable with a growing number of other sites around the world including Germany, the Netherlands, Sweden, Spain, Turkey and Costa Rica. By making this dataset publicly available and adhering to the principles of FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable, reusable) data24, we aim to contribute valuable information to the field, facilitating further research and the development of more personalised and effective interventions for optimising light exposure for health and well-being.
Methods
This dataset was collected in an observational field study in which participants were recruited in Kumasi, Ashanti Region, Ghana (coordinates 6.6750074282377385 N, -1.572643823555129 W), to evaluate their personal light exposure patterns using wearable light loggers and questionnaires following a standardized, multi-site protocol23. This study was conducted within the framework of the Metrology for wearable light loggers and optical radiation dosimeters (MeLiDos) project that aims to quantify individual light exposure using wearable light loggers and solar UV dosimeters25. For the general overview of this study, see Figure 1.

Participant recruitment
Participants were recruited via advertisements disseminated as flyers on various social media platforms. Participants were directed to scan a QR code to access an online platform (Research Electronic Data Capture, or REDCap26,27) on which they could complete the first screening survey. The aims of the study and detailed information were provided during this screening step. Eligible participants were aged 18–65 years, had no psychiatric or sleep disorder, were not using tobacco or recreational drugs or taking medication, had normal vision and were not using prescribed glasses and lived within a 60-km radius of the research centre. Eligible participants were sent a picture of a spectacle-mounted ActLumus light logger (Condor Instruments, São Paulo, Brazil) and were asked to confirm that they would feel comfortable wearing it throughout the study period. Participants received financial remuneration of €82.30 at the end of the study based on their compliance with the experimental light study, which required them to wear the light logger for at least 80% of their waking hours. 15 participants were recruited for the study.
Procedures
Eligible participants were invited to the department on a given Monday to begin the light exposure assessment and finished the following Monday. On the first Monday (day 1), participants received detailed information about the study and signed an informed consent form. They also received three wearable light loggers, which they were instructed to wear at chest level, at the near-corneal plane and on their wrist. They were given instructions on how to use the devices correctly. They also installed the MyCap app28, which integrates with REDCap and was used to complete the daily questionnaires during the light study.
Measures and data collection
ActLumus light loggers (Condor Instruments, São Paulo, Brazil)
Three ActLumus light loggers (Condor Instruments, São Paulo, Brazil) were used to objectively measure personal light exposure and activity at different locations. One ActLumus was positioned near the corneal plane on a 3D-printed holder attached to the bridge of a pair of non-prescription glasses. A second light logger was worn as a manufacturer-supplied pendant attached to a lanyard to measure light at chest level. The third light logger was worn at wrist level using the manufacturer-provided wristbands. The devices record across the visible spectrum and provide calibrated alpha-opic and photopic metrics, as well as movement using an integrated tri-axial accelerometer. Each light logger was set to a 10-second sampling interval to achieve highly temporally resolved data. Participants were also instructed to follow instructions about when to wear and remove them and how to document wear and non-wear. They were also informed to ensure that the light loggers were not obstructed by clothing and to remove them when in contact with water or during intense sporting activities. The devices were never charged or turned off during the light study week. The light exposure data were retrieved from the devices when they were returned on the final Monday (day 8) and stored on a secure, personal computer on campus.
Chronotype questionnaires
On the first day of the light exposure study, participants completed the chronotype questionnaire. This consisted of the Munich Chronotype Questionnaire (MCTQ)29, which assesses circadian time using questions about sleep and wake habits during work and leisure periods and the Morning-Eveningness Questionnaire (MEQ)30 to determine their circadian preference, i.e. the times of day at which they perform certain activities.
Visual Light Sensitivity Questionnaire-8 (VLSQ-8)
Participants completed the eight-point Visual Light Sensitivity Questionnaire (VLSQ-8)31 on the final day of the data collection week after returning the wearable devices. The questionnaire asked participants to estimate the frequency and severity of their photosensitivity, as well as its impact on their daily behaviours, using a five-point Likert-type scale (1 = “Never” to 5 = “Always”).
Morning sleep log
Participants completed the Sleep Diary every morning after waking up in order to assess their sleep timing, duration and quality. The questionnaire consisted of nine items, with the final item scored on a five-point Likert-type scale ranging from 1 (“Very poor”) to 5 (“Very good”).
Ecological momentary assessment (“Current conditions”)
Participants completed a short questionnaire four times a day (at 11:00, 14:00, 17:00 and 20:00) about their current light environment, mood and level of sleepiness. They received reminders via the REDCap/MyCap app and were instructed to set their own phone alarms to help them remember. For the light conditions section, participants selected one or two main light sources from a list of eight options based on a modified version of the Harvard Light Exposure Assessment Diary (H-LEA). Mood was measured using a shortened version of the Mood Zoom questionnaire32 and sleepiness was rated using a 10-point Karolinska Sleepiness Scale (KSS)33, which ranges from 1 (“Extremely alert”) to 10 (“Extremely sleepy, fighting sleep”).
Exercise log
Each evening before going to bed, the participants completed a custom-made questionnaire about their daily physical activity. The questionnaire collected information on the intensity of the exercise (vigorous, moderate or light), where it took place (indoors or outdoors) and how much time was spent sitting or lying down during the day.
Wellbeing log
Each evening before going to sleep, the participants completed a modified version of the WHO-5 Wellbeing Index34. This comprised five statements about their mood, energy levels, sleep quality and interest in daily life. For four of the statements, participants rated how often they experienced positive emotions using a five-point Likert-type scale ranging from 0 ("Never") to 5 ("Always"). For the question about sleep quality, they rated it from 1 (“Very poor”) to 5 (“Very good”).
Light exposure and activity log
Each evening, the participants completed the modified Harvard Light Exposure Assessment (H-LEA35), which was provided during their first visit to the office (on day 1). For each hour of the day, they recorded the main light source to which they were exposed, defined as the 'biggest and brightest light source', as well as the activity in which they were engaged during that hour. Light sources were chosen from eight predefined categories, including indoor and outdoor electric light, daylight indoors or outdoors, screen-based light, darkness and light during sleep. If they were exposed to multiple light sources within the same hour, participants selected from a list of combined options. Activities were selected from eight categories, such as sleeping, working, commuting or spending time outdoors. To ensure compliance, participants submitted a photo of the completed form each morning to a personal shared folder on Google Drive. They also used the MyCap app to rate their confidence in the accuracy of their responses on a five-point Likert-type scale ranging from 1 (“Not confident at all”) to 5 (“Completely confident”).
Light Exposure Behaviour Assessment (LEBA)
At the end of the study (on day 8), the participants completed the Light Exposure Behaviour Assessment (LEBA20), which is a 22-item questionnaire designed to assess light-related behaviours retrospectively during the light study week. The first three items, relating to the use of blue-filtering, orange-tinted, or red-tinted glasses, were excluded as these were not relevant due to the participants wearing light loggers. The final version included 19 items focusing on behaviours such as daylight exposure, smartphone use, bedtime light habits and electric light use at home. Participants rated how often they engaged in these behaviours using a five-point Likert-type scale ranging from 1 (“Never”) to 5 (“Always”).
Assessment of Sleep Environment (ASE) questionnaire
On the final day (day 8), participants completed the 13-item Assessment of Sleep Environment (ASE36) questionnaire, which asked about factors in their sleeping environment, such as light, noise, temperature and humidity, that could influence sleep quality or affect light measurements from the light logger placed near them during sleep (e.g. light entering through windows). They rated their agreement with each statement on a five-point Likert-type scale ranging from 1 (strongly agree) to 5 (strongly disagree).
Data processing and availability
The data collected in REDCap was exported as a comma-separated (CSV) file and processed using Microsoft Excel 2016. To anonymise the data, each participant was given a unique identifier ranging from KNUST_S001 to KNUST_S015and the position of the light logger was labelled as “w” for the wrist, “c” for the chestand “h” for the head. This dataset is publicly available on Zenodo under https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.1557673237. While the repository contains the raw (anonymized) data at start, it will be augmented into a standard format at a later point. This augmentation includes the addition of metadata in a human- and machine-readable format as well as the correction and documentation of implausible entries by participants (e.g., mixing up AM and PM when entering times so that typical sequences like going to bed, sleeping, waking up, getting up, do not fall on a continuous timeline). All steps will be archived on Zenodo and assigned a persistent identifier (DOI) for full traceability. All data are available under the terms of the CC-BY 4.0 Attribution.
Dataset description
The dataset is organised into two main categories: Group (containing files for all participants) and Individual (containing participant-specific files and logs). Each participant is identified by a unique participant ID (PID). The study was carried out over seven days for each participant (eight calendar dates), with data collected using continuous wearable light loggers (ActLumus) and standardised questionnaires in RedCap via the MyCap mobile app.
