Fig. 2: Definition of Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) data for process mining.

This figure demonstrates the structure definition of EMA TYT data for the first question (i.e., tinnitus perception with no (0)/yes (1) of the TYT daily 8-question questionnaire for process mining. In this example (see orange area), the user_id functions as the unique case identifier, responses to the first question are represented as activities, and the record creation timestamp offers the essential chronological sequence. Additional elements in the dataset can be interpreted from different perspectives, such as case attributes or event attributes.
