Overview

This tutorial provides a guide for calculating diversity-type intraindividual variability (IIV) constructs, such as emodiversity using intensive longitudinal data (e.g. daily diary, ecological momentary assessment, experience sampling, etc). Examples of diversity-type IIV constructs include, but are not limited to, emodiversity, social diversity, activity diversity, and stressor diversity. Please see the corresponding paper “Fusing biodiversity metrics into investigations of daily life and healthy aging: Illustrations and recommendations with emodiversity” (Benson, Ram, Almeida, Zautra, & Ong, under review).
