A qualitative observation is used in chemistry, and is simply observing physical changes.
A qualitative observation merely indicates that the subject possesses a certain quality, for example "this water is salty". A quantitative observation takes a measurement of the quality, for example "this salty water has a concentration of 10% salt".
Controlled observation is a type of observational study where thesituations areplanned by the researcher. This type of observation may be carried out in a laboratory type situation and because variables are manipulated is said to be high in control. The weakness of the method is that it will be low in ecological validity compared to naturalistic observation. If participants are aware they are being studied they behave differently. by Riziki Kacheche ESM Student ARU-2009/13 Tanzania
Qualitative observations are those that cannot be measured mathematically or assigned a value. For example, "the sky is blue," is a qualitative observation, it has no mathematical value associated with it. Quantitative observations are those that have a mathematical value. For example, "this desk is 1 meter long" is a quantitative observation. Therefore, noting that something is bubbling is an example of a qualitative observation.
by performing controlled experiments.
The three types of observation in language study are naturalistic observation, controlled observation, and participant observation. Naturalistic observation involves observing language use in natural, everyday contexts. Controlled observation is conducted in a controlled environment with specific parameters and conditions. Participant observation involves actively participating in the language community being studied while also observing and documenting language use.

Qualitative observation is subjective. Quantitative observation is the result of controlled testing procedures with prescribed procedures in place. Quantitative testing is sometimes called empirical testing.
