Lifelogging has become a prominent research topic in recent years. Wearable sensors like Fitbits and smart watches are now increasingly popular for recording ones activities. Some researchers are also exploring keystroke dynamics for…
This paper presents a model for predicting a driver's stress level up to one minute in advance. Successfully predicting future stress would allow stress mitigation to begin before the subject becomes stressed, reducing or possibly avoiding…
Stress is a pervasive challenge that significantly impacts worker health and well-being. Workplace stress is driven by various factors, ranging from organizational changes to poor workplace design. Although individual stress management…
The use of observed wearable sensor data (e.g., photoplethysmograms [PPG]) to infer health measures (e.g., glucose level or blood pressure) is a very active area of research. Such technology can have a significant impact on health…
A person's passage of time perception (POTP) is strongly linked to their mental state and stress response, and can therefore provide an easily quantifiable means of continuous mental health monitoring. In this work, we develop a custom…
Introduction Schizophrenia is a severe mental disorder, and early diagnosis is key to improving outcomes. Its complexity makes predicting onset and progression challenging. EEG has emerged as a valuable tool for studying schizophrenia, with…
This article seeks to address the prevailing issue of how to measure specific process components of psychobiological stress responses. Particularly the change of cortisol secretion due to stress exposure has been discussed as an…
The effectiveness of digital treatments can be measured by requiring patients to self-report their state through applications, however, it can be overwhelming and causes disengagement. We conduct a study to explore the impact of…
University students encounter various forms of stress during their academic journey, including cyclical stress associated with final exams. Supporting their well-being means helping them manage their stress levels. In this study, we used a…
Recent studies apply psychometric questionnaires to Large Language Models (LLMs) to assess high-level psychological constructs such as values, personality, moral foundations, and dark traits. Although prior work has raised concerns about…
Several statistical and machine learning methods are proposed to estimate the type and intensity of physical load and accumulated fatigue . They are based on the statistical analysis of accumulated and moving window data subsets with…
Mental health and general wellness are becoming a growing concern in our society. Environmental factors contribute to mental illness and have the power to affect a person's wellness. This work presents a smartphone-based wellness assessment…
Heart rate variability (HRV) is a practical and noninvasive measure of autonomic nervous system activity, which plays an essential role in cardiovascular health. However, using HRV to assess physiology status is challenging. Even in…
Mindfulness has become increasingly popular as a method for building resilience against stress in both clinical and healthy populations. This study sought to investigate the effects of mindfulness training on perceived levels of stress and…
Any person in his/her daily life activities experiences different kinds and various amounts of mental stress which has a destructive effect on their performance. Therefore, it is crucial to come up with a systematic way of stress management…
Mental stress is a vague though familiar concept that accounts for an agency of the good, the bad and the ugly, that operates in the brains of animated beings, in response to environmental stressors. In this work, we provide evidence for…
Psychological stress detection is an important task for mental healthcare research, but there has been little prior work investigating the effectiveness of psychological stress models on minority individuals, who are especially vulnerable…
This study aims to identify a set of indicators to estimate cognitive workload using a multimodal sensing approach and machine learning. A set of three cognitive tests were conducted to induce cognitive workload in twelve participants at…
Driver stress is a major cause of car accidents and death worldwide. Furthermore, persistent stress is a health problem, contributing to hypertension and other diseases of the cardiovascular system. Stress has a measurable impact on heart…
The new method is proposed to monitor the level of currently accumulated fatigue and estimate it by the several statistical methods. The experimental software application was developed and used to get data from sensors (accelerometer, GPS,…
