Feeling Like an Imposter: The Effect of Perceived Classroom Competition on the Daily Psychological Experiences of First-Generation College Students (2019, unknown): “…allows students to report their experiences as they are happening in real time, which provides more accurate assessments of what students are thinking, feeling, and doing in the moment compared to retrospective reports that suffer from common biases in retrieval (Csikszentmihalyi & Larson, 2014).”
The rewarding effect of flow experience on performance in a marathon race (2009, unknown): “Thus, flow is recommended to be measured directly during the performance of an activity (Rheinberg, 2008; Csikszentmihalyi & Larson, 1987).”
Mobile Therapy: Case Study Evaluations of a Cell Phone Application for Emotional Self-Awareness (2010, methodology): “Prompting at random intervals addresses reporting biases, such as the tendency to recall the most intense and recent emotions [9,11].”
Experience Sampling: Promises and Pitfalls, Strengths and Weaknesses (2003, background): “On the other hand, multiple items are not necessary for establishing reliability because reliability can be computed from the aggregate of the single items over time (Csikszentmihalyi and Larson, 1987).”
Co‐occupation: Extending the dialogue (2009, methodology): “One such is the Experience Sampling Method (ESM) developed to explore the construct of flow experiences through random sampling of in-time experience (Csikszentmihalyi & Larson, 1987).”
UbiGreen: investigating a mobile tool for tracking and supporting green transportation habits (2009, background): “We first report on two studies we performed to better understand current transportation behaviors: an online survey and an experience sampling (ESM) study [11].”
The Concept of Flow (2014, methodology): “Full descriptions of the Experience Sampling Method (ESM) can be found elsewhere (e.g., Csikszentmihalyi & Larson, 1987).”
Emotional inertia and psychological maladjustment (2010, unknown): “Study 1 An experience-sampling study (Csikszentmihalyi & Larsen, 1987) was conducted to collect data on the emotional changes and fluctuations that naturally occur during daily life.”
MyExperience: a system for in situ tracing and capturing of user feedback on mobile phones (2007, background): “In situ self-report methods like ESM [7] and diaries [29] provide details about a user’s context, intentions, and actions that system activity logs cannot capture [6].”
Perceived progress variability and entrepreneurial effort intensity: The moderating role of venture goal commitment (2015, methodology): “ESM measures Given the intensive nature of ESM, shortened versions are normally used to ease participant burden and minimize participant fatigue over multiple repeated assessments (cf. Csikszentmihalyi and Larson, 1987; Fisher and To, 2012; Song et al., 2008; Williams and Alliger, 1994).”
