ABSTRACT
This position paper presents our preliminary design of a smartphone-based behavioral activation method for unipolar disorder. The method relies on extensive collection of patient generated data on hourly activity. We report on the background for the study and the methods applied in the ongoing design process. The paper ends by discussing the challenges associated with such detailed experience sampling.
