EMOTONGUE es una aplicación para Android diseñada para ayudar a las personas a ser más conscientes de sus propias emociones, facilitando procesos de autorregulación emocional en su vida diaria. La app fue evaluada en un estudio con 16 participantes. Estos utilizaron la app cinco veces al día durante dos semanas. Se buscaba mejorar el manejo emocional, la granularidad emocional y la percepción de la intensidad emocional. Se utilizó un diseño de métodos mixtos, combinando enfoques cualitativos y cuantitativos. Los resultados indicaron mejoras progresivas en la autoconciencia y el manejo emocional, así como en la granularidad emocional, al conseguir etiquetar, por medio de la app, las emociones de manera más específica. Se observaron diferencias en la expresión emocional entre los idiomas nativo y segundo, así como en la frecuencia de uso de emociones relacionadas con la activación y/o el placer debido a matices culturales y/o de género. Aunque los resultados sugieren la eficacia de la app, se requiere un tamaño de muestra más grande para confirmarlos. Este estudio resalta la importancia de herramientas accesibles en psicología y educación para beneficiar a más personas.
