Match monitoring frequency to the rate at which meaningful change occurs in each system, sampling at least twice as fast as the fastest change you need to detect to avoid aliasing real patterns.
Why This Is a Principle
Derives from cognitive capacity varying in ultradian and circadian cycles (Ultradian and Circadian Cognitive Rhythms) and memory decay occurring on predictable timescales (Exponential Information Decay). The principle prescribes matching sampling rate to signal frequency to capture meaningful patterns.
