Pick-A-Mood Manual
Pictorial self-report scale for measuring and expressing mood states
Pick-A-Mood is a cartoon-based pictorial instrument for reporting and expressing moods. It measures eight distinct mood states in a quick and intuitive way, and can be used both for qualitative and quantitative research. Pick-A-Mood consists of three cartoon characters: a male, female and a robot character (Figure 1). Each character includes nine expressions that represent eight distinct mood states (and one neutral character). The sets are interchangeable; choice of character can be
based on respondent demographics or on other pragmatic considerations. This manual provides a step-by-step guide for using Pick-A-Mood.

Humane care—which is an important design paradigm relevant for pervasive healthcare—means designing systems with care, keeping in mind both users and other stakeholders. Understanding human values is a key factor in creating any successful healthcare application and is essential to avoid dehumanizing and stigmatizing users. By considering human values, designers and developers can create pervasive healthcare applications that better fit users' needs and desires. The Designing with Care 09 workshop aimed to bring together researchers, designers, and practitioners to share their experiences with incorporating values into the design of pervasive healthcare systems and to help understand the sensitive issues involved in designing for healthcare. Based on the findings from the workshop, the present state of the art is discussed, and a research agenda is presented.
