Does stress level and emotion affect our cybersecurity behavior?

We are sure that your answer is yes. However, is there any empirical studies to prove it?. SPOILER: NO*.

This project aims to empirically analyze the relationship between mental state (working memory, emotion, and stress level) and cybersecurity behavior using questionnaire, lab-based experiment, and real-life scenarios. Besides, we will also build a privacy-preserving technologies based stress and emotion identification. To reach the project purpose, several data collections needed and we need participants.
