The other issue to consider is that the vast majority of American high schools have start times that are far too early for the typical teenager's circadian rhythm.[1]
Sleep deprivation has a major effect on generalized anxiety[2]. The research I would like to see done, is to test whether the groups of students with the earliest starting schools saw larger drops in anxiety during the transition to full remote.
