Abstract：
Recent longitudinal observations show that human menstrual cycles, sleep-wake cycles and manic-depressive cycles can become synchronized with lunar cycles, but do so in uniquely complex and heterogeneous ways that are unlikely to have been detected by past studies. Past studies\' negative results have given rise to a scientific consensus that human biology and behavior are unaffected by lunar cycles. The recent observations show that synchrony can be temporary, and can occur with more than one type of lunar cycle, more than one phase of a lunar cycle and more than one resonant frequency of a lunar cycle. Given the variability of human responses to lunar cycles, aggregate analyses used in almost all previous studies would likely have cancelled out individuals\' responses and led to false negative results. In light of these observations, the question of lunar influence should be investigated further, with longitudinal observations and case-by-case analyses of individuals\' data.
摘要：
最近的纵向观察表明，人类的月经周期，睡眠-觉醒周期和躁狂-抑郁周期可以与月球周期同步，但是以独特的复杂和异质的方式这样做，过去的研究不太可能发现。过去的研究“负面结果已经引起了科学共识，即人类生物学和行为不受月球周期的影响。最近的观察表明，同步可能是暂时的，并且可以发生在不止一种类型的月球周期中，月球周期的一个以上阶段和月球周期的一个以上共振频率。鉴于人类对月球周期反应的可变性，几乎所有先前研究中使用的汇总分析可能会抵消个体的反应并导致假阴性结果.鉴于这些观察,月球影响问题应该进一步调查，对个体数据进行纵向观察和个案分析。
