Abstract: | A method is suggested to evaluate on an empirical basis sampling plans for the longitudinal study of primate behavior in those
very common situations in which the mathematical structure of behavior is unknown. The method is based on a randomization
procedure applied to a pilot sample of the behavior organized so that cost of implementation of a sampling plan can be evaluated
vis á vis the sampling error intrinsic to the plan. |
