Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Participants and Method The study will include individuals aged 18-65, diagnosed with alcohol dependency according to DSM-5 criteria, and who have been in remission for at least one month. Individuals with active psychiatric disorders or physical disabilities will be excluded from the study. The sample size was determined using G\*Power analysis, with a target of 207 participants for the ANOVA test. Participants will be reached through social media, support groups, rehabilitation centers, and health professionals, and assessments will be conducted via Google Forms. Participants will provide informed consent prior to participation. The sampling method is non-probability sampling.
Assessment Tools Chronotype Evaluation: The participants' circadian rhythms will be assessed using the "Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire" in Turkish, which has proven validity and reliability. This scale consists of 19 items used to determine whether individuals have a morning, evening, or intermediate chronotype. Total scores will be categorized into five different chronotype groups based on predetermined ranges.
Physical Activity Level Evaluation The "International Physical Activity Questionnaire - Short Form," with proven validity in Turkish, will be used. This questionnaire measures walking, moderate, and vigorous physical activities and determines the total physical activity level in MET-minutes.
This research aims to contribute to a better understanding of the relationship between physical activity and chronotype in individuals with alcohol dependency. This study is designed as a cross-sectional observational research.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Evening Type
This group includes individuals who are most productive in the evening. They prefer to stay awake until late in the evening and have difficulty getting up in the morning. They reach their highest energy levels and efficiency in the evening hours.
No interventions assigned to this group
Intermediate Type
This group is located between morning and evening types and includes individuals who can be productive at any time of the day. They neither have difficulty waking up early in the morning nor staying awake until late hours. They have a balanced energy level throughout the day.
No interventions assigned to this group
Morning type
This group includes individuals who have their highest energy levels in the morning hours. They wake up early in the morning and are most productive mentally and physically in the early hours of the day. It is generally preferred to start activities in the morning and sleep early.
No interventions assigned to this group
