Claim 0:
1. A method for utilizing a wrist-worn wearable computing device to detect an arousal event of a user, comprising:
receiving, from a plurality of sensors on the wrist-worn wearable computing device, data indicative of the arousal event, the plurality of sensors comprising a first electrode on a bottom face of the wrist-worn wearable computing device and contacting a wrist of the user and a second electrode on a top surface of the wrist-worn wearable computing device, the first and second electrodes being electrically isolated within the wrist-worn wearable computing device, wherein the data indicative of the arousal event comprises, at least, electrodermal activity (EDA) data captured when the user places one or more fingers on the second electrode on the top surface of the wrist-worn wearable computing device, the second electrode comprising at least one EDA sensor that measures, at least, a skin conductance response to sweat or moisture on the skin of the user;
comparing the EDA data to a threshold; and
displaying, via a display screen of the wearable computing device, a notification to the user identifying the arousal event based on the comparison.
