Colloquium Title and Abstract:
Intensive Longitudinal Methods: Toward a Psychological Science of Daily Life
Jean-Philippe Laurenceau, Ph.D.
University of Delaware
The use of Intensive Longitudinal Methods (ILMs) has grown exponentially in the behavioral, social, and biomedical sciences over the past 30 years. As noted by Gordon Allport, these methods allow researchers to study "life as it is lived." ILMs represent a class of longitudinal designs used to understand the flow of people鈥檚 thoughts, feelings, physiology, and behaviors in their natural settings. This umbrella term encompasses daily diary, experience sampling, ecological momentary assessment, ambulatory assessment, and related methods for studying daily life. In this talk, I will review the current status of and future directions for ILMs where three core ideas will permeate: To build adequate theories of psychological functioning in natural settings, researchers must focus on (a) kinematics, (b) dynamics, and (c) heterogeneity. Kinematics answers the question, What happened? Dynamics answers the question, Why did it happen? Heterogeneity answers the question, How much do people vary in the whats and whys? ILMs can address these three goals of psychological science.
