In each situation below, decide which choices to make. Give reasons for each choice:

A.Should the observation be structured or unstructured?

B.Should the observation be overt or covert?

C.Should the researcher have an active or passive role in the observation?

Example: Observing children’s reactions to peer pressure after losing a computer game = structured, semi-overt, passive (children know they’re being observed, but not the reason why).
