Continuous Monitoring

Continuous monitoring is the ongoing collection and analysis of data about a system, individual, or environment to detect changes over time. In behavioral research, it uses repeated observations or automated tools such as video recording, wearable sensors, and activity logs to capture behavior as it occurs, rather than relying only on occasional assessments; time-stamped data can then reveal patterns, frequency, duration, and transitions between behaviors. This approach supports the study of daily activity, responses to environmental conditions, social interactions, and behavioral variability. By providing a detailed temporal record, continuous monitoring can improve measurement accuracy and help researchers identify meaningful changes that brief observations may miss.
