The rehabilitation therapist wants to determine if the sensory integration sessions are helping to reduce Ed's hand-slapping. What is the BEST method for recording momentary time-sampling data?
A) Fifteen-minute observation periods are divided into 3-minute intervals. Staff then record whether or not hand-slapping is occurring at the end of each 3-minute interval.
B) Twenty-minute observation periods are divided into 10-minute intervals. Staff then record whether or not hand-slapping is occurring during each 10-minute interval.
C) Thirty-minute observation periods are divided into 2-minute intervals. Staff then record whether or not hand-slapping occurs at any moment during each 2-minute interval.
D) One-hour observation periods are divided into 10-minute intervals. Staff then record whether or not hand-slapping occurs at all during each 10-minute interval.

I think option C is the best for capturing more data.

I’m torn between A and C. I know shorter intervals can give more accurate data, but I wonder if 2 minutes is too short for meaningful observation.

I feel like we practiced a similar question, and I might have chosen option A back then, but now I'm not so sure.

I think option C makes the most sense because it captures hand-slapping more frequently with those 2-minute intervals.

I remember we discussed momentary time-sampling in class, but I'm not sure which interval is best for this situation.
