AbstractMobile health (mHealth) apps, such as menstrual trackers, provide a rich source of self-reported observations: they provide day-to-day health indicators and behaviors, which can help shed light onto an individual's wellness and health over time. However, self-tracked data collected via mHealth apps have questionable reliability, as they hinge on user adherence. Because mHealth app users may skip tracking relevant health information, disentangling physiological...
