Dr Abigail Millings from CATCH has published a paper
examining whether online interventions for the management of stress can be
improved by adding wearable biosensors for the purposes of tracking and
biofeedback relaxation exercises. The mixed methods study found that an online
program for stress management was more effective without, rather than with, the
sensors. However, the sensors were prototypes, and not wholly reliable, and
this is the likely reason for the pattern of results found. Interviews with
participants suggest that the sensors have potential, and people particularly
enjoyed using them for biofeedback exercises.
