Abstract: This presentation originated from a field study of the behavior of feral baboons in Tanzania. The field study made use of behavior sampling methods. Behavior sampling methods included on-the-moment (instantaneous) and thru-the-moment (one-zero). Some primatologists critiqued behavioral sampling as not reflecting true frequency or duration. A Monte Carlo simulation study was performed to compare behavior sampling with actual frequency and duration.
