Melatonin the hormon your brain makes to help you fall asleep is destroyed by light this means natural light and artifical light. Therefore watching a screen makes you less sleepy then just sitting in the dark (duh) but that's the point researchers are making.
I work in the TV buisness and watch screen (10-15) and have morning/evening/night shifts. I find that taking melatonin before I go to bed helps me sleep. Where I had trouble sleeping at first.
The stuff about wifi (electro-magnetic) signals interrupting your sleep cycle is something I do not know but that seems stretched.
