Although cannibalism is often depicted as aberrant behavior, Schutt found that it occurs all the time in the natural world.
These emerging eHealth technologies permit greater precision of measurement and more continuous monitoring of behavior in real time, with the possibility of simultaneous collection and integration of data from multiple sources (e.g., self-report, biosensor, social media) to better understand and predict behavior as it unfolds in naturally occurring contexts.
Compensating for an undesirable behavior, he acknowledged, is not the same as understanding why it occurs in the first place.
