Data timing and logging is facilitated by an intuitive user interface whereby keyboard keys are assigned to behavioral events. The user simply presses and holds the appropriate key when the event is observed. A customizable data file is created in real time which can be saved as text, printed, or imported into a spreadsheet such as Microsoft Excel™ or statistical analysis program such as SPSS™ for analysis.
