Abstract

A system, apparatus and method for experience time sampling via a mobile graphical user interface. A method includes receiving mood data from an individual in predefined time intervals via a mood mapping graphical user interface hosted by a mobile device. The mood mapping graphical user interface is comprised of a 2×2 diagram having a valence dimension and an intensity dimension. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Claims

1. A system, comprising:

a mobile device; and

a mood mapping graphical user interface hosted via the mobile device to receive mood data from an individual in predefined time intervals, wherein the mood mapping graphical user interface is comprised of a 2×

2 diagram having a valence dimension and an intensity dimension.

2. The system of claim 1, wherein the 2×

2 diagram further comprises one or more semantic labels.

3. The system of claim 2, wherein the 2×

2 diagram further comprises a color gradient.

4. The system of claim 1, wherein the mood mapping graphical user interface is implemented as a touch screen graphical user interface.

5. The system of claim 1, wherein the mood mapping graphical user interface is used to assess user satisfaction with a consumer device.

6. A method, comprising:

receiving mood data from an individual in predefined time intervals via a mood mapping graphical user interface hosted by a mobile device, wherein the mood mapping graphical user interface is comprised of a 2×

2 diagram having a valence dimension and an intensity dimension.

7. The method of claim 6, wherein the 2×

2 diagram further comprises one or more semantic labels.

8. The method of claim 7, wherein the 2×

2 diagram further comprises a color gradient.

9. The method of claim 6, wherein the mood mapping graphical user interface is implemented as a touch screen graphical user interface.

10. The method of claim 6, wherein the mood mapping graphical user interface is used to assess user satisfaction with a consumer device.

11. A machine-readable medium containing instructions which, when executed by a processing system, cause the processing system to perform a method, the method comprising:

receiving mood data from an individual in predefined time intervals via a mood mapping graphical user interface hosted by a mobile device, wherein the mood mapping graphical user interface is comprised of a 2×

2 diagram having a valence dimension and an intensity dimension.

12. The machine-readable medium of claim 11, wherein the 2×

2 diagram further comprises one or more semantic labels.

13. The machine-readable medium of claim 12, wherein the 2×

2 diagram further comprises a color gradient.

14. The machine-readable medium of claim 11, wherein the mood mapping graphical user interface is implemented as a touch screen graphical user interface.

15. The machine-readable medium of claim 11, wherein the mood mapping graphical user interface is used to assess user satisfaction with a consumer device.
