When an experimenter unintentionally gives cues to participants about the way they are expected to behave?
experimental bias
What is controlled observation?
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
What is an overt observation?
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.

Is naturalistic observation the most vulnerable to the effects of wording?
No. In naturalistic observation, you are observing the participants in their "natural habitat", so wording has very little - if anything at all - to do with how the participants behave.

What are the advantages of naturalistic observation in psychology?
Naturalistic observation, can be divided into two main sections, overt and covert. The advantages of using overt naturalistic observation is that you see your participants in their natural everyday environment, going about their daily lives as they would normally, however, this can cause demand characteristics in the participants as they may behave how they think the researcher wants them to. The advantages of using covert naturalistic observation is that your results will be extremely high in ecological validity, and there will be very few if no anomolous behaviours, however, covert observation of any kind can bring about numerous ethical issues.
