Abstract

Psychopathology is a field of research concerned with mental disorders. In psychopathology research is often done by undertaking a cross-sectional study. In a cross-sectional study a large amount of data is collected from a large group of participants at one specific point in time. An average is determined from this large data set to which an individual is compared. A new way to conduct research in psychopathology is a personal diary study. In a diary study a participant is followed more extensive and over a longer period of time. The most common way to conduct such a diary study is by having the participant enter a questionnaire every day and possibly multiple times a day. Such a questionnaire contains questions about what happened on that day and what activities they did, integrating psychological with physiological questions. A diary study is referred to as EMA or Experience Sampling Method.
