Abstract
This dataset was collected from university students before, during, and after the COVID-19 lockdown in Southern California. Data collection happened continuously for the average of 7.8 months (SD=3.8, MIN=1.0, MAX=13.4) from a population of 21 students of which 12 have also completed an exit survey, and 7 started before the California COVID-19 lockdown order. This multimodal dataset included different means of data collection such as Samsung Galaxy Watch, Oura Ring, a Life-logger app named Personicle, a questionnaire mobile app named Personicle Questions, and periodical and personalised surveys. The dataset contains raw data from Photoplethysmogram (PPG), Inertial measurement unit (IMU), and pressure sensors in addition to processed data on heart rate, heart rate variability, sleep (bedtime, sleep stages, quality), and physical activity (step, active calories, type of activity). Ecological momentary assessments were collected from participants on daily and weekly bases containing their Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) questionnaire and their emotional responses to COVID-19 and their health. Subjective data was also collected through monthly surveys containing standard mood and mental health surveys such as Beck Depression Inventory II (BDI-II), Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI), GAD-7, Inclusion of Other in the Self Scale (IOS-Partner), Acceptability of Intervention Measure (AIM), Intervention Appropriateness Measure (IAM), Feasibility of Intervention Measure (FIM), Experiences in Close Relationships Scale Short Form (ECR-S), UCLA Three-Item Loneliness Scale (ULS), Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS), Investment Model Scale (IMS), Conflict Management Scale (CMS), etc in addition to their response to important events and COVID-19. This dataset can be used to study emotions, mood, physical activity, and lifestyle of young adults through longitudinal subjective and objective measures. This dataset also contains valuable data regarding adjustment of lifestyle and emotions during the events of 2020 and 2021 including COVID-19 discovery and lockdown, Black Life Matter movement, 2020 US presidential elections, etc. On average, participants engaged in the EMA collection study at a rate of 86% (SD=10, MIN=65, MAX=99). Smartwatch usage saw an average participation rate of 51% (SD=20, MIN=16, MAX=88), while engagement with the Oura ring averaged at 85% (SD=12, MIN=60, MAX=99).
Keywords: Raw wearable physiological signals, Photoplethysmography (PPG) waveforms, Heart rate and heart rate variability, Self-reported real-life mental health data, Longitudinal sleep and physical activity, Ecological momentary assessments (EMAs), Inertial measurement unit waveform, Personal responses to 2020 events

2.3.2. Oura
This subfolder represents the data collected through Oura ring v1. Oura provides data in three modalities: activity, sleep, and readiness. Activity data is available throughout day and night and shows how active the participants were throughout the day and on average each day represented in Tables 5 and 6. It also contains heart rate and heart rate variability of participants during their sleep presentated by Table 7. The other modality is readiness which is a set of different scores that Oura calculates based on the collected data to show the overall wellbeing of participants during each day described in Table 8. The sleep data is generally only available for night time and represent the quality of sleep and different sleep stages at Tables 9 and 10 The descriptions for these fields have been recited from Oura API V1 documentation [3].

2.3.5. Personicle
The data is collected using Personicle mobile application [6]. It records life logs of participants and converts them into event segments including location and activity information of participants. Segments indicate the 5 minutes interval of event changes. If two consecutive events have the same label, they will be stored as one with the start time of the earliest happening event. As soon as the segment label changes, a new event segment is created. The data collected via Personicle mobile application is presentated in Table 19.

2.4. Code
There is going to be a “ifh_affect.py” file alongside the dataset folders. This file does not contain any data but it can facilitate loading and transforming the data in Python.
This file provides two classes DataLoader and DataTransform. The DataLoader class can take the address of the dataset root or zipfile and load different modalities for each participant or for multiple of them. The DataTransform function provides functions for converting the timestamps to human readable times.
3. Experimental Design, Materials and Methods
3.1. Experiment design and setup
This study was designed to create a longitudinal dataset of physiological and emotional assessments for emerging adults. This dataset can be used for studying affect and correlations of mental health, affect, physiology, sleep, and activity of emerging adults.
However, as COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown started during the study, the purpose of this study was shifted toward studying the effects of the lockdown on participants' life and mental health. To adapt to the new conditions, the study design, recruitment materials, and questionnaires were updated as the study was ongoing.
This study collected objective ubiquitous data from wearable devices and life-logger apps and combined them with subjective ecological momentary assessments (EMAs) and surveys to create a spectrum of physiological and mental profile for each participant over time. To achieve this objective, this study was required to collect different modalities of data. First, the participants needed to be objectively monitored for their sleep and activity. While many wearable devices can provide accurate measurements on sleep and activity, collecting raw data can be useful in extracting additional features and creating opportunities for future research. Second, the participants' mood and mental state needed to be monitored by subjectively asking them about their mood and mental state.
In order to collect this dataset, it was necessary to build an Internet platform that can ubiquitously monitor the participants over time, and provide tools for the study coordinator to monitor the progress and data collection remotely. To this end, ZotCare [7] was utilised. ZotCare is an online mHealth service that can be used to collect, store, and analyse the data on different levels of technology stack. Services used in this study include the collection service for collecting objective data from participants' wearable devices and collecting subjective EMAs through mobile app. The collected data then was processed by ZotCare's cloud server and stored in a database. Besides that, ZotCare's dashboard was utilised in this study to monitor the collected data and ensure participants' collaboration in data collection.
To collect the subjective EMAs, ZotCare's frontend app was customised in this study and was published as Personicle Questions in Google Play. In this application participants would answer daily EMA questionnaires and weekly ones. Both EMAs contain questionnaires that focus on participants’ emotions and their worries about their health in regards to COVID-19. The weekly EMAs additionally contains participants’ written responses about the highs and lows of the previous week. The emotion questions stem from an established measurement, the Positive and Negative Affect Scale (PANAS) [6], while others are brief self-developed, single-item questions that help get an understanding of participants’ overall emotions and worries as a result of the largely-impactful event at the time, the COVID-19 pandemic. The participants could answer the daily questionnaire from 7:50 PM to 3:00 AM PST time. Every participant was notified at 8PM every night to respond to this questionnaire. If the participant did not respond to the EMA, two follow up reminders would be sent to them at 10PM and 11:59 PM. The weekly EMA was open for participants from 7:50 AM to 8 PM PST time every Sunday with the first reminder at 8 AM and two follow up reminders at 10 AM and noon in case they failed to respond to the EMA before the reminder.
In order to collect raw objective data of the study, ZotCare Tizen wearable app was used to collect the data directly from the participant's watch. This app was set to collect raw data from sensors such as ppg, accelerometer, gyroscope with frequency of 20Hz, and pressure with frequency of 10Hz every 2 hours for 12 minutes. Besides the raw sensors, the samsung watch also collected data for pedometer and awake times. The pedometer data is supposed to contain step counts and more details of the participants' stepping pace. The frequency of pedometer data is random since it depends on the frequency of the steps taken and its detection by the watch. The awake times data shows the times that the watch detects that the participant is awake.
In this experiment, Oura ring was used to monitor participants' activity and sleep. Oura is one of the most accurate commercially available wearable devices for sleep monitoring and its battery life is higher than smartwatches. The data collected by Oura is stored in Oura's servers. ZotCare can use Open Authentication to collect these data from Oura and make them available to researchers on daily bases.
The Personicle Android mobile application was used to collect participants' data, which collected and processed the Google location, Google place, mobile device-specific measures like Calendar, and Ambient Light to identify points of interest and predict the activities performed by the user on a daily basis. Datapoints Personicle, as a mobile application, collected the phone data and sent it to the server for further processing, which, in turn, created the following data points: Lifelog: This was the raw data collected on every 5-minute interval from the phone. Point of interest (POI): This was the derived location/place of a user based on the state of the user (still/motion), Google location, and place API. Home and Work locations were also set as POI after collecting the data for 2 days from the date of app installation. Segment: Segments, in general, were the aggregated/filtered results from lifelog and POI between the occurrences of events. Changes in the state (still/motion) of a person or events like shopping or sleep were considered as events. We are providing access to Segments in this dataset.
The last data collection modality was subjective assessments. These assessments were collected upon participant's enrollment, their exit, and every month of their participation in the study. Also another assessment was collected from participants about the events that have happened during their enrollment in the study and their effect on their mental state and emotions.These assessments were developed using Qualtrics software. Each assessment was a combination of different standard and self-developed questionnaires that is represented in the Table 20.
Table 20.

3.2. Recruitment and Enrollment
Participants were recruited through UCI faculty and through posted flyers around UCI campus. Participants were between the ages of 18-22, enrolled at the time as UCI students, were able to fluently speak and write in English, used an Android operating system of 6.0 or higher on their primary phone (to be compatible with wearable devices), was not a parent, was not married, did not come back to school after more than three years, and was not diagnosed with or met criterias for depression. These criterias were screened for via a phone call after participants expressed interest in participating via email.
If interested participants were eligible to participate, they were then scheduled for an enrollment session. Participants visited Dr. Borelli's THRIVE lab at University of California, Irvine to complete the pre-assessment. During this enrollment session, participants completed a battery in which they were asked specific questions that re-confirmed eligibility for the study. Additionally, we collected select demographic information from them (i.e., age, year in school, gender, ethnicity). The research assistant provided information about the study and reviewed the consent form. Once the participant consented, the participant then completed psychological assessments (e.g., BDI-II, PANAS, BSI). If during the pre-assessment, the participant happened to score high on the BDI-II (i.e., a score that indicates moderate depression) or if the participant indicated suicidality, the PI, Dr. Borelli who is a liscensed clinical psychologist, contacted the participant to perform additional psychological assessments on suicide, depression, and social support screening before deciding if the participant can continue in the study or should be withdrawn. In case the participant needed additional assistance, health referrals and resources were provided to them and they were compensated in a prorated way.
If the participants were selected for the study, they had to go through an enrollment session. During the enrollment session, the research team helped set up the wearable smartwatch and smartring, download all necessary applications onto the participants’ phone (Personicle, Personicle Questions, Oura, Galaxy Wearable), and review device care and study expectations. After the session, participants would then receive an email with $30 of compensation in the form of an Amazon gift-code.
The majority of the participants were recruited during the COVID-19 pandemic. To address the social distancing orders, we modified our procedures so that the enrollment process could be completed 100% remotely. Participants would be asked to measure their ring at home (this was done using a measuring tape) to get an estimation of their ring size for the Oura ring. Participants were then mailed a shipping package, which contained the monitoring devices (watch and Oura ring). In this package, they were also given a prepaid postage stamp and an address label for them to use when returning their devices. Participants were given instructions for how to use the devices during a remote pre-assessment visit with a research member, which was accomplished via Zoom. During this remote session, the research team would guide the participants through the same procedures as an in-person visit and participants were compensated the same amount after the session.
3.3. Data collection
Participation was originally set for 3 months, but participants had the option to continue for an additional 3 months afterwards, up to 3 more times for a maximum of 12 months of total participation. Participants completed a followup assessment at the end of the initial 3-month study period, and completed additional follow ups after each 3-month period if they opted in. Our research team would monitor for incoming data daily and would send reminders to participants to complete surveys if 2-3 were incomplete in a row. If watch or ring data was not submitted regularly, our research team would email the participant a reminder to wear the device and would follow-up with troubleshooting methods if necessary. Participants were compensated $15 per week via email in the form of an Amazon gift-code.
3.4. Exit
At the end of the 12 week period, participants were emailed a Qualtrics link with their ID# for them to complete their exit assessment which took approximately 30 minutes. The exit assessment consisted of the same questions as the baseline assessment in addition to event-mining questions that asked participants to rate how large events impacted their life (i.e.,the impact of the first COVID-19 vaccine rollout). Participants were then given instructions to delete all the phone applications that were downloaded during the start of the study (Personicle, Personicle Questions, Oura, Galaxy Wearable).
All participants who were enrolled in the study between January 2020 and March 2020 were invited to an extension of the current study. At the end of the initial 12-week period, participants completed their exit survey (30 minutes). After completion of the survey, the research coordinator would then review the participant's scores on the BDI-II and follow the same protocol for screening and professional assistance as during the enrollment session. Participants were then given the opportunity to electronically sign a new consent form that asked them to consent to be involved in a continuation of the study (this occurred via DocuSign). If participants agreed to participate in the study continuation, they then continued wearing the devices and completing the surveys for an extended period of 8 weeks. These 8 weeks would have the same on-going data collection, daily surveys, and weekly surveys. At the end of the extended 8 weeks, participants were provided with a Qualtrics link for their second and final exit survey. Participants were then given instructions to delete all the phone applications that were downloaded during the start of the study (Personicle, Personicle Questions, Oura, Galaxy Wearable) and how to delete the watch's MAC address off of their OIT account. They were then asked to return the devices and chargers by using the packaging, postage stamp, and address label that was provided to them when they first received the devices. Participants were then compensated $50 via email in the form of Amazon gift-codes. Participants who decide to continue participation into the study's extension would receive an additional $50 after the second exit assessment was completed.
Limitations
IoT device missing data: Working with wearable devices in longitudinal study can cause many missing data. Data collection might occasionally be overlooked due to unintentional oversights from participants or unforeseen technical issues.. Participants often forget to wear their devices, charge them, keep their bluetooth and Internet connection on, and also sometimes they might restart the devices or log out of their accounts by mistake and cause data loss. Besides that, we faced some technical challenges collecting data from participants. Modern operating systems such as Android and Tizen shut down applications that users do not interact with. This feature affected our Tizen application and the Personicle application since the apps were only background monitoring and users did not interact with. Another type of technical issues came from our services being down from time to time since the services used in this study were in the development stage.
