An intake questionnaire, that participants answered at the study's start.
A main questionnaire (10 times per day), where participants answered questions about their emotions and context at the time.
An evening questionnaire (once, at the end of the day), about their emotions and activities throughout the day.
Each row corresponds to one beep sent during the study.
