Momentary time sampling is an interval recording procedure in which the observer records whether the target behavior is occurring at the end of a predetermined time interval. It is a systematic and objective method for capturing a representative sample of the behavior over a specified period of time. It is often used when it is not feasible to monitor the behavior continuously or when continuous observation is not necessary for the behavior to be accurately assessed. Therefore, it is the best choice among the options provided.
