Resumen	Longitudinal Mobile Experience Sampling combines the real-time, in-context signal capture of Experience Sampling Method (ESM) with a longitudinal design spanning weeks, months, or longer. Participants respond to repeated prompts delivered to their smartphones across multiple time waves, enabling researchers to observe within-person change, stability, and dynamic processes as they unfold in daily life rather than in retrospective recall.	The diary method is a data-collection technique in which participants record their thoughts, behaviours, events, or experiences in their own words at regular or event-contingent intervals over a defined study period. By capturing data close in time to the event, diaries reduce retrospective recall bias and give researchers access to the texture of everyday life as it unfolds — something one-off surveys and retrospective interviews cannot provide.
