The study examined the relationship between local geomagnetic field fluctuations and physical and mental health among young adults in Lithuania. 264 participants were recruited for a two-week period study, during which they had to fill-in paper questionnaires, consisting of a 12-Item Short Form Survey (SF-12), assessing physical and mental health, 4 questions about physical vitality, emotional vitality, social wellbeing and overall wellbeing, and questions regarding sociodemographic data. The results of the study revealed that possible influence of geomagnetic field fluctuations appear not simultaneously with the changes in human health status, but with a 12-hour lag.
