Document Summary
We have di erent ways of measuring, depending on the type of study that you are doing. Observation: direct: the subject knows the researcher is there, and that they are being observed. In some cases they don"t care, but in other cases like if they"re kids, they do care: indirect: you are videotaped, or through something like a one way mirror, participant: the researcher is part of the situation. So the professor can be lecturing, and making observations at the same time. Physical measurements: like weight or height, which can be measured directly. A ective measurements: measuring your feelings, di cult to measure, and its usually done through self reporting, by people asking you how you feel. Questioning techniques: asking people what they think, structured questionnaires: please indicate what you did this weekend, unstructured questionnaire: what are you thinking about something.
