Psiquiutda, Tlnlpan, MkxicoBehavioral studies using observational methods can be improved by the use of microcomputers. Computers are time-saving tools that enhance quantitative assessment of behavior. This is important in primate behavior studies, which typically are long-term and involve large repertoires of behaviors. The present study describes three BASIC programs developed to record, store, and handle behavioral data. This sofiware was created to allow the collection of a library of unabridged sampling sessions. The data-handling programs were designed so that users can effortlessly extract specific information without disturbing the original recordings. Moreover, the programs can be easily translated to any BASIC dialect, so their use is not limited to a particular machine.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
