Smartphone based experience sampling of stress-related events

Mobile phones are gaining particular importance in health care services. In fact, the incredible difussion of mobile electronic devices has opened new scenarios for the assessment of stress-related events. We presented an Android Smartphone based experience sampling method and a real life data set containing stress related events. Data consisted of 12 weeks of 9 trial participants provided with Android Smart phone equipped with a specific experience sampling application.
