5、oor closing. Short-term memory also called【 T4】 _, holds information for about【 T5】 _ seconds. This is not a very long time.

Then in systematic time sampling, our observations might be made during five 20- minute periods,【 T2】 _. The first observation

9、 period could begin at 9 am, the second at 10 am and so forth. However, in random sampling, these five 20-minute periods may be distributed randomly over the course of the day. That is to say, intervals between observation periods could 【 T3】_ some longer others shorter. One point Id like to make is

10、 systematic and random time sampling are【 T4】 _. They are often combined in studies.
