Physiological data collected from Feel Program reveals negative emotions have almost doubled since lockdown
Feel Therapeutics has used objective data collected from physiological signals detected by their proprietary Feel Emotion Sensor, an emotion tracking wearable device, to understand and quantify the changes to the emotional states of a sample group of participants in Europe and the USA. Over the course of eight weeks, between February and April 2020, Feel collected data from a random sample group of participants in Europe and the USA, and analysed 128 million electro-dermal activity (EDA) samples, 400 million heart rate variability (HRV) samples, 64 million skin temperature (ST) samples, and approximately 900 significant emotional moments. Results from this recent study showed sudden and significant changes to those physiological signals, indicating that emotional changes or new emotions were being experienced.
