Abstract

In recent years, there has been a surge of interest in mobile applications and devices for emotion regulation. Examples include biofeedback devices and mobile applications that help users manage their stress [1][2]. These technologies are often designed to help users reflect on their past or current emotions or prompt users to perform specific tasks (e.g., deep breathing exercises). Despite the utility of these solutions, users are often unable to use them while performing certain tasks, such as during a job interview or public speech, since the technologies often require users to shift their attention away.
