Measuring digital intervention user experience with a novel ecological momentary assessment (EMA) method, CORTO.

ABSTRACT: Digital interventions often suffer from low usage, which may reflect insufficient attention to user experience. Moreover, the existing evaluation methods have limited applicability in the remote study of user experience of complex interventions that have expansive content and that are used over an extensive period of time.
