Anthropology and sociology are the perspectives most likely to use participant observation as a research method. This method involves immersing oneself in the culture or community being studied to gain a deep understanding of their practices, beliefs, and social interactions. Participant observation is particularly valuable for studying behavior and social norms within a specific context.
The biological perspective in psychology would be most likely to emphasize that behavior is influenced by genetics, brain structures, and neurotransmitters. This perspective focuses on how biological factors impact thoughts, feelings, and actions.
The behavioral perspective is most likely to emphasize the importance of observable behavior, learning through reinforcement and punishment, and environmental influences in shaping an individual's actions and reactions.
Structuralists like Wilhelm Wundt and Edward Titchener would have been most likely to use introspection in their research. Introspection involves self-observation and reporting one's thoughts and feelings, a method commonly used by early psychologists to study mental processes.
The trait theory of personality is most likely to involve testable predictions about personality and human behavior. This theory suggests that personality can be described in terms of identifiable traits, allowing researchers to develop hypotheses that can be tested through empirical research and observation.
The evolutionary perspective in psychology proposes that behaviors and traits that promote the transmission of one's genes are more likely to be passed down to future generations. This perspective emphasizes the role of natural selection in shaping human behavior based on the idea that traits that enhance reproductive success are more likely to be inherited.
There are a couple disadvantages of non participant observation. One of which is "Hawthorne effect" if people know they are being observed. The other is you are unable to get as much information because you are not part of the group.
An overt observation in when a participant knows that they are being observed and the purpose behind the observation. This method of observation means that participants can be followed to different locations as fully informed consent can be given with no need for deception. However as the participant knows that they are being followed, it is likely that there will be a high chance of demand characteristics as they will wish to please the observer.

Each participant will work together to keep the vision going. If they share the same vision, it is more likely that they will be able to get it done.
Ossie is likely using observational research to confirm his theory about societal views on appropriate behavior among family members versus social acquaintances. By observing people's interactions in these different groups, Ossie can gather data to support or refute his hypothesis.

No. A probability means, how likely it is for something to happen. An observation of SEVERAL similar events can give you a good ESTIMATE of the probability.
