How often is too often in ESM research?
🚨New study out!
We compared 6 beeps/day vs. 12 beeps in 2 h bursts.
Both work, but burst designs show more fatigue + attrition — still useful if high temporal precision matters.
App onboarding, though? Big bias alert. 📱

Proud to share our new paper on how patterns of mobile communication relate to feeling rushed.
We combined experience sampling and smartphone log data, capturing frequency, duration, fragmentation, and notifications across four app categories, to examine direct and indirect links via task juggling.
