SYNOPSIS: “My Life in A Day” is a multipurpose smartphone diary and recall that may be used to collect daily time-use, geospatial, image, and other environmental context data in health research. The smartphone application features a customizable interface that can be tailored to the preferences of individual research participants and a built-in crosswalk that links participant customizations to data standards established by the researcher — in essence, allowing participants the flexibility of free-text response and researchers the ease of discrete response options. “My Life in a Day” was developed as a lightweight tool to collect free-living behavior data for a broad variety of research questions and designs, including clinical monitoring, behavioral interventions, and surveillance studies. “My Life in a Day” was created by Dr. James McClain and Dr. Heather Bowles. |
