I’m leaning towards activity sampling too, but I wonder if there’s a chance it could be scenario analysis instead?

Special purpose records sound familiar, but I feel like that’s more about documentation rather than tracking daily tasks.

I think the answer is D - activity sampling. The question mentions the users are recording the tasks they undertake during the workday, which is exactly what activity sampling is. I feel good about this one.

Hmm, I'm a little confused by this one. The question doesn't explicitly use the term "activity sampling," so I'm not sure if that's the right answer. Maybe it's A - special purpose records? I'll have to re-read the question carefully before deciding.

Okay, I've got it! The key is that the Business Analyst is having users record their tasks during the day. That sounds like the definition of activity sampling to me. I'm confident D is the right answer here.

I'm a bit unsure about this one. The question mentions a form for users to track their tasks, but I'm not sure if that qualifies as "activity sampling." Maybe it's C - questionnaires? I'll have to think this through a bit more.
