A control theoretic approach to evaluate and inform ecological momentary interventions.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Ecological momentary interventions (EMI) are digital mobile health interventions administered in an individual's daily life to improve mental health by tailoring intervention components to person and context. Experience sampling via ecological momentary assessments (EMA) furthermore provides dynamic contextual information on an individual's mental health state. We propose a personalized data-driven generic framework to select and evaluate EMI based on EMA.

Methods

We analyze EMA/EMI time-series from 10 individuals, published in a previous study. The EMA consist of multivariate psychological Likert scales. The EMI are mental health trainings presented on a smartphone. We model EMA as linear dynamical systems (DS) and EMI as perturbations. Using concepts from networ
