1Controlled ObservationA form of investigating in which behaviour is observed but under conditions where certain variables have been organised by the researcher.
2Overt ObservationsObservational studies where participants are aware that their behaviour is being studied.
3Inter-observer ReliabilityThe extent to which there is an agreement between two or more observers involved in the observation of behaviour.
4Naturalistic ObservationAn observation carried out in an everyday setting, in which the investigator does not interfere in any way but merely observes the behaviour(s) in question.
5Non-participant InvestigationThe observer is separate from the people being observed.
6Observer BiasObservers' expectations affect what they see or hear. This reduces the validity of the observations.
7Covert ObservationObserving people without their knowledge. Knowing that their behaviour is being observed is likely to alter how they behave.
8Participant ObservationObservations made by someone who is also participating in the activity being observed, which may affect their objectivity (E.g Zimbardo's Stanford Prison Experiment)
