Comparison between Ecological Momentary Assessment and Questionnaire for Assessing the Frequency of Waking-Time Non-Functional Oral Behaviours.

Over the years, several tools have been proposed to measure oral behaviours (OB). Recently, a smartphone-based application for ecological momentary assessment (EMA) has been introduced to collect real-time data on waking-time OB. The aim of this study was to compare the self-reported frequency of OB by means of a standardised questionnaire with that recorded with a smartphone-based application for EMA.
