纸和铅笔自我监控(PM)的局限性导致了更复杂技术的使用。将PM与手机监测(CM)进行比较，以收集酒精使用的生态瞬时评估数据。20名社交饮酒者被随机分配到两组，并对他们的饮酒情况进行了14天的监测。PM参与者将数据记录在卡片上。CM参与者携带电话，并对交互式语音应答系统做出回应。作者发现，在酒精使用、对自我监测的遵从性和满意度方面，小组之间几乎没有显著差异。然而，CM有有用的优势，包括将数据即时输入中央数据库，数据的日期和时间戳，以及易于融入日常生活。虽然这项研究是初步的，但这项研究表明，CM是一种有希望的PM的替代品
The limitations of paper-and-pencil self-monitoring (PM) are leading to the use of more sophisticated techniques. PM was compared with cellular phone monitoring (CM) to collect ecological momentary assessment data on alcohol use. Twenty social drinkers were randomly assigned to the 2 groups, and their drinking was monitored for 14 days. PM participants recorded data on cards. CM participants carried telephones and responded to an interactive voice response system. The authors found few significant group differences in alcohol use, compliance with the self-monitoring, and satisfaction. However, CM had useful advantages, including instantaneous entry of data into a central database, date and time stamping of data, and easy integration into daily life. Although preliminary, this study suggests that CM is a promising alternative to PM.
