Abstract:
:A versatile and easy to use program is described for monitoring and recording behavior durations on IBM-compatible microcomputers. The program also records frequencies and provides latency information. Among its more prominent attributes are its ability to accommodate a broad range of behavioral assays and the facility with which its operation can be mastered. It requires no specialized hardware and is capable of being used in conjunction with a number of commercially available software packages for statistical analysis.
