Abstract
We investigate measures of chaos in the measurement record of a quantum system which is being observed. Such measures are attractive because they can be directly connected to experiment. Two measures of chaos in the measurement record are defined and investigated numerically for the case of a quantum kicked top. A smooth transition between chaotic and regular behavior is found.
