Recently, a smartphone-based application for ecological momentary assessment (EMA) has been introduced to collect real-time data on waking-time OB. The aim of this study was to compare the self-reported frequency of OB by means of a standardised questionnaire with that recorded with a smartphone-based application for EMA. A total of 151 participants, recruited from the general population, were invited to fill in the Oral Behaviour Checklist (OBC). Scores for four questions concerning grinding, clenching, tooth contact, and mandible bracing were computed. Afterwards, participants were provided with a smartphone application for prolonged real-time reporting of OB. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and a general linear mixed model (GLMM) were used to compare the responses to each OBC question with the frequencies of the same condition recorded with the EMA. Results showed significant association between OBC responses and the EMA recordings. In particular, increased frequencies of clenching, grinding, and teeth contact were recorded by individuals who provided higher OBC scores. On the other hand, a nonlinear association was observed for \u201cmandible bracing\u201d, pointing out difficulties in the comprehension of this condition.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm11195880","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,8]],"date-time":"2022-10-08T23:39:31Z","timestamp":1665272371000},"page":"5880","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":25,"title":["Comparison between Ecological Momentary Assessment and Questionnaire for Assessing the Frequency of Waking-Time Non-Functional Oral Behaviours"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2588-2949","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rosaria","family":"Bucci","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosciences, Reproductive Sciences and Oral Sciences, Section of Orthodontics and Temporomandibular Disorders, University of Naples \u201cFederico II\u201d, 80131 Naples, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4352-3085","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Daniele","family":"Manfredini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Biotechnologies, School of Dentistry, University of Siena, 53100 Siena, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Francesca","family":"Lenci","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosciences, Reproductive Sciences and Oral Sciences, Section of Orthodontics and Temporomandibular Disorders, University of Naples \u201cFederico II\u201d, 80131 Naples, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2387-4125","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Vittorio","family":"Simeon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mental Health and Preventive Medicine, Medical Statistics Unit, University of Campania \u201cLuigi Vanvitelli\u201d, 81100 Naples, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2692-9478","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alessandro","family":"Bracci","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neuroscience, School of Dentistry, University of Padova, 35128 Padua, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ambrosina","family":"Michelotti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosciences, Reproductive Sciences and Oral Sciences, Section of Orthodontics and Temporomandibular Disorders, University of Naples \u201cFederico II\u201d, 80131 Naples, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"438","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0722.2008.00560.x","article-title":"Waking-State Oral Parafunctional Behaviors: Specificity and Validity as Assessed by Electromyography","volume":"116","author":"Ohrbach","year":"2008","journal-title":"Eur.
