Longitudinal field study investigates cognitive and emotional outcomes of wearable eyewear, indicating sustained benefits.
Between 2011 and 2026, a longitudinal field study investigated the effects of a custom stereochromatic eyewear device (BerliNeon - HighWear) on cognitive and emotional functioning. A total of 111 participants (214 observations across multiple follow-up waves) completed a repeated-measures design using a bipolar semantic differential scale. Results showed consistent self-reported improvements across six domains: creativity, reaction time, decision latency, emotional regulation, sleep quality, and intrinsic motivation. The study was conducted within a second-order cybernetic framework, explicitly treating the researcher-participant-device triad as an operationally closed system. Part of the BERLINJOHN Cybernetics Corpus (2026b). Dedicated to Vera F. Birkenbihl on her 80th birthday.
