- 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.
