Ecological Momentary Assessment Software for Researchers

Capture behaviour
in the moment, in daily life

Build ecological momentary assessment (EMA) studies without coding. Deliver timed, randomly scheduled, or event-triggered surveys and cognitive assessments to participants’ phones. Combine self-reports with wearable data, monitor survey completion, and export data for analysis.

BOOK A DEMO

Ecological momentary assessment (EMA) uses brief, repeated surveys to capture people’s experiences, behaviours, and surroundings as they go about daily life. By collecting responses close to when experiences occur, EMA reduces reliance on long-term recall and helps researchers understand how thoughts, feelings, and behaviours change throughout the day.

What Is Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA)?

Why Run Your EMA Study with Pathverse?

Build EMA studies without coding. Schedule timed, random, or event-triggered surveys, send reminder notifications, and monitor participant completion. Combine surveys with cognitive assessments and wearable data. Country-specific data hosting options are available.

Scheduling

Timed, Random, or Event-Triggered EMA Surveys

Set flexible release rules to deliver surveys and assessments, including cognitive assessments, at scheduled times, in response to events, or at randomly sampled times throughout the day.

Surveys

Create Flexible EMA Surveys

Implement interactive surveys into your modules to collect data from your participants. Choose from multiple choice, number or emoji slider, drop-down menu, or open-ended text box survey functionalities.

Wearables

Pair EMA with wearable data

Participants connect their wearable once. Device data, including steps and active minutes, sync alongside their survey answers, so you can compare what people self-report with what their wearable device recorded.

This includes Apple Health, Google Health Connect, Polar, and more!

Cognitive Assessments

Pair EMA with Cognition Assessments

Deliver brief cognitive assessments throughout the day to capture changes in cognitive performance. Combine assessments with EMA surveys to explore how daily experiences and contexts relate to cognition.
