About This Template
Mental health conditions are characterized by changes in mood and emotional regulation. This Mood Tracker gives participants a structured way to document their emotional states and identify patterns that may not be apparent in periodic clinical assessments.
Participants rate their mood on validated scales, noting feelings of sadness, anxiety, irritability, and emotional stability. The tracker also captures potential mood influences like sleep quality, social interactions, stressful events, and medication adherence. Open-ended prompts allow participants to describe significant emotional experiences in their own words.
This template is designed for use in depression studies, anxiety disorder trials, bipolar disorder monitoring, and evaluations of psychotherapy or pharmacological interventions. It can be completed daily for intensive monitoring or at scheduled intervals for longitudinal tracking.
The format balances quantitative ratings for statistical analysis with qualitative notes that provide clinical context. All scales are based on validated instruments commonly used in psychiatric research.
