Abstract
Pervasive usage of smart phones and smart watches create immense opportunities for deploying the Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) method as a research tool by providing access to individuals in their natural environment. Though EMA method establish itself as a substitution of more conventional methods (e.g. retrospective surveys) because of its higher ecological validity, creation of decision rules for just-in-time adaptive interventions based on patients EMA responses are still quite rare. We propose a novel method of creating and triggering behavior change interventions based on the decision rules developed in response to EMA surveys, particularly for patients with coronary heart disease (CHD).
