Using Mobile and Web Technologies to Collect and Analyze Emotion Survey Data

Published: 06 May 2016 Publication History

Abstract

Traditional methods of survey data collection in education and research in samples of undergraduate students have largely consisted of pen-and-paper surveys administered in laboratory settings. The Emotion Regulation Application (ERA) project aims to provide a system to facilitate the gathering of data from study participants using a mobile application installed on smartphone devices with collected data being made available to researchers through a web application. The project's progress thus far has provided the beginnings of an effective solution serving to ameliorate some of the drawbacks of more traditional data acquisition methods used in similar research, as well as a unique opportunity for directed learning in software design and development.
