We are very much interested in your experiences either they are frequent or not so frequent - even if you don't have that kind of experience, you can still participate. You will be asked to download an application on your phone/tablet and complete a short questionnaire (each one takes about a minute to complete) in response to 8 push notifications per day for 4 days. The study will finish early January 2020
