Abstract EN
This work describes the usability studies conducted in the development of an experience-sampling methodology (ESM) system running in a mobile device.
The goal of the system is to improve the accuracy and ecology in gathering daily self-report data in individuals suffering a chronic pain condition, fibromyalgia.
The usability studies showed that the developed software to conduct ESM with mobile devices (smartphones, cell phones) can be successfully used by individuals with fibromyalgia of different ages and with low level of expertise in the use of information and communication technologies.
100% of users completed the tasks successfully, although some have completely illiterate.
Also there seems to be a clear difference in the way of interaction obtained in the two studies carried out.
