Abstract

Accurate assessment of saliva sampling time is essential for studies that collect cortisol sample in ambulatory settings. This study examined the sampling time assessed by user-submitted photos via a mobile application (ZEMI) compared with MEMSCaps™. Intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC) of the time differences between when the 16 adolescents in the study were prompted to collect the sample and (1) when the MEMSCaps™ was opened (TimeM), and (2) when photos of the corresponding sample were submitted (TimeZ) was computed to evaluate the agreement of sampling times. The average TimeM and TimeZ 12.06 ± 65.80 and 16.13 ± 52.07 minutes, respectively. The pooled ICC between TimeM and TimeZ was 0.986 (95% CI: 0.959–0.995), suggesting excellent correspondence between the two measurements.

基于照片的智能手机应用程序评估青少年唾液皮质醇采样时间的准确性

唾液采样时间的准确评估是必不可少的研究，收集皮质醇样本在门诊设置。本研究检验了用户通过移动应用程序(ZEMI)提交的照片评估的采样时间，并与MEMSCaps™进行了比较。计算16名青少年被提示采集样本与(1)打开MEMSCaps™(TimeM)和(2)提交相应样本照片(TimeZ)之间的时间差的班级内相关系数(ICC)，以评估采样时间的一致性。TimeM和TimeZ的平均值分别为12.06±65.80和16.13±52.07分钟。TimeM和TimeZ之间的合并ICC为0.986 (95% CI: 0.959-0.995)，表明两个测量值之间具有良好的对应关系。

期刊介绍： Field Methods (formerly Cultural Anthropology Methods) is devoted to articles about the methods used by field wzorkers in the social and behavioral sciences and humanities for the collection, management, and analysis data about human thought and/or human behavior in the natural world. Articles should focus on innovations and issues in the methods used, rather than on the reporting of research or theoretical/epistemological questions about research. High-quality articles using qualitative and quantitative methods-- from scientific or interpretative traditions-- dealing with data collection and analysis in applied and scholarly research from writers in the social sciences, humanities, and related professions are all welcome in the pages of the journal.
