Abstract

An exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method of determining stress levels in a user comprising: receiving galvanic skin response (GSR) measurements by a wearable sensor on the user over a period of time; receiving temperature measurements by the wearable sensor on the user over the period of time; determining changes in the temperature over a predetermined threshold in the temperature measurements over the period of time; calibrating the GSR measurements based on the determined changes in temperature over the predetermined threshold; calculating a stress level of the user based on the calibrated GSR measurements; and generating an output indicative of the calculated stress level.
