Participant authorization
Invited participants receive a private link and choose whether to authorize read-only access to the wearable data described in their study materials.
University of Haifa research platform
AdmonTracker
AdmonTracker supports authorized wearable-data research conducted by the Stress & Psychopathology Lab at the University of Haifa.
Purpose and functionality
Research management for invited participants and authorized study staff
The platform enables invited adult research participants to connect supported wearable accounts and enables authorized University research staff to monitor collection status and data completeness for approved studies.
Wearable research data
For Study 385/23, approved Google Health data consists of heart rate, steps, sleep data, physical activity, and respiratory rate. The study also uses watch model, battery status, and last-sync time for operational quality checks. Google Health access is read-only and uses the account designated for the study.
Study operations
Authorized staff use AdmonTracker to manage research devices, assess data completeness, review operational alerts, and support participants.
Use of Google data
Why AdmonTracker requests Google access
For staff authentication, Google Sign-In provides basic identity information such as name and email address so AdmonTracker can verify the staff member and apply the correct project role.
For participants who separately authorize Google Health access, AdmonTracker requests only four approved read-only scopes: activity and fitness; health metrics and measurements; sleep; and settings. The settings scope is used only to retrieve the assigned watch model, battery level and status, and last synchronization time for device support and data-quality checks. Participants use the Google account designated for the study, not a personal Google account. The resulting data is used only for Study 385/23 and necessary quality checks as described in the approved participant materials and Privacy Policy.
| Read-only Google Health scope | Data used | AdmonTracker feature |
|---|---|---|
googlehealth.activity_and_fitness.readonly | Steps and physical activity | Dashboard steps view |
googlehealth.health_metrics_and_measurements.readonly | Heart rate and respiratory rate | Dashboard heart-rate view and bounded research collection |
googlehealth.sleep.readonly | Sleep sessions, timing, duration, and stages when available | Dashboard sleep view |
googlehealth.settings.readonly | Assigned watch model, battery level/status, and last synchronization time | Dashboard Device Details |
AdmonTracker does not sell Google user data, use it for advertising or credit decisions, or use it to train general-purpose AI or machine-learning models.
Access
How to use the service
Research staff: open the application and sign in with the authorized Google account assigned to your study role.

AdmonTracker — מערכת לניהול מחקרי נתונים לבישים
המערכת מופעלת על-ידי המעבדה ללחץ ופסיכופתולוגיה בבית הספר למדעי הפסיכולוגיה באוניברסיטת חיפה. היא מאפשרת למשתתפים בגירים שהוזמנו למחקר לבחור אם לחבר חשבון לביש, ולאנשי צוות מורשים לנהל את איסוף הנתונים, שלמותם והתמיכה במשתתפים.
כניסת אנשי צוות באמצעות Google משמשת לאימות שם וכתובת דוא״ל ולהקצאת תפקיד מתאים. גישה לנתוני Google Health מתבצעת רק לאחר הרשאת משתתף, בקריאה בלבד ובאמצעות חשבון Google ייעודי למחקר. הנתונים המאושרים למחקר 385/23 הם דופק, צעדים, נתוני שינה, פעילות גופנית וקצב נשימה, וכן דגם השעון, מצב ורמת הסוללה ומועד הסנכרון האחרון לצורכי תפעול ובקרת איכות.
