| Abstract: | A method is described in which the behaviour of individual animals is recorded to minimise order effects and observer differences in studying a small group of captive monkeys. Gross activity profiles were obtained using time sampling and a modified event recording technique. The application of this simple and relatively unambiguous recording method to the study of social behaviour is indicated. |
