Abstract
Health-related behaviors, such as physical activity, smoking, and healthy eating differ along numerous dimensions (e.g., frequency, volition), requiring various analysis methods. Physiological methods (e.g., salivary cotinine as a biomarker for
smoking) offer high accuracy, and low demand characteristics but are comparably cost-intensive. Moreover, behavior-specific biomarkers are rare, preventing routine application. Behavioral observation methods using electronic devices (e.g., smartphones, accelerometers) offer accurate, valid, and effective possibilities for assessing everyday health behaviors. Self-reports on past behavioral frequencies are the most common and least resource demanding; however, irrelevant or biased questions seriously decrease the validity of a survey.
