ARPobservation: Tools for simulating different methods of observing behavior
based on alternating renewal processes
ARPobservation provides a set of tools for simulating data based
on direct observation of behavior. It works by first simulating a behavior
stream based on an alternating renewal process, given specified
distributions of event durations and interim times. Different procedures for
recording data can then be applied to the simulated behavior stream.
Functions are provided for the following recording methods: continuous
duration recording, event counting, momentary time sampling, partial
interval recording, and whole interval recording.
