Abstract

A computationally implemented method includes, but is not limited to: acquiring subjective user state data including at least a first subjective user state and a second subjective user state; acquiring objective context data including at least a first context data indicative of a first objective occurrence associated with a user and a second context data indicative of a second objective occurrence associated with the user; and correlating the subjective user state data with the objective context data. In addition to the foregoing, other method aspects are described in the claims, drawings, and text forming a part of the present disclosure.
