Observational Sampling Methods for Insect Behavioral Ecology
Year: 1984
Type: article
Abstract: Researchers who want to retain relevant behavioral and ecological settings and at the same time conduct scientifically rigorous studies have increasingly turned to non-experimental research design. By understanding the basis for wise data collecting decisions, and their consequences, the observer can choose appropriate methods. Using illustrations from insect behavior, this paper discusses some of the basic principles involved and two of the most useful ways of collecting behavioral data.
