Electrodermal activity is one of the most studied psychophysiological markers of the functioning of the autonomic nervous system and it has been applied in psychophysiological research for over 100 years. However, electrodermal activity measurement has not been largely applied in clinical research until now due to it being limited to laboratory environment before the entry of wearable devices. The aim of this study is to speed up research and development of electrodermal activity applications based on wearable device measurements. In order to reach that goal an ecosystem model is proposed that includes open data, open source, application programming interface and software development kit as central components. To illustrate the ecosystem model a case study of Moodmetric is presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
