Next time you visit the Innovation Center, Science Center or the Library, take a moment to check in at the Mood Meter. The Mood Meter is a touchscreen interactive display kiosk that provides members of the FLC community with the opportunity to record their current emotional state. The Mood Meter is the latest installation of the Quantified College, and is designed to record the "emotional temperature" of the college community. Based on the Mood Meter created by Marc A. Brackett at the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence, the Mood Meter is also designed to help all of us develop an increasingly robust emotional vocabulary. Stop by and check out the options beyond, "I'm fine," and tell us how you really feel. No personally identifiable information is collected.

The data collected will provide an opportunity to explore novel interventional approaches and intentional event planning for the college community. For example, the data may inform Student Health and Wellness strategies for providing support at specific points in the semester in an attempt to reduce overall community stress. It may also suggest optimal timing for hosting ASFLC events at points in the semester when the data show particular levels of enthusiasm and engagement (read: time for fun).

The Quantified College is an interdisciplinary effort to gather data at a variety of scales, macro to micro, in order to provide students with research experiences in real-world contexts. The Mood Meter data will be used in Psychology classes to help students understand concepts related to the use of correlational data and will provide a platform for undergraduate research across disciplines. If you've ever wondered whether something was in the air that was making people act a certain way, you'll be able to investigate those questions using a combination of data collected in real-time at FLC.

The Mood Meter is a joint effort of the Innovation Center, the Library, MESA (Mathematics, Engineering, Science, Achievement), Student Health and Wellness, and the Department of Psychology, and was created in partnership with FLC students Brenda Loza Gutierrez, Emily Puthur Simon, and Brandon Tautuan.
