Social jet lag: Sleep-corrected formula

The proposed sleep-corrected formula for social jet lag accounts for both misalignment and sleep debt.

• Social jet lag refers to the discrepancy between an individual's social schedule and their biological clock.
• The traditional formula for measuring social jet lag does not fully consider the effects of sleep deprivation during workdays.
• The new formula differentiates between sleep onset and sleep offset on workdays versus free days.
• It is designed for subjects with longer sleep duration on free days and varying sleep onset or offset times.
• This approach may provide a more accurate assessment of social jet lag and its implications for health.
