The experiment.
The experiment is the most helpful for revealing cause-effect relationships. In an experiment, researchers can manipulate variables and control for confounding factors to establish a direct relationship between the independent and dependent variables. This allows researchers to determine causality more confidently compared to other methods such as surveys, correlational research, or naturalistic observation.
a. Naturalistic observation involves observing and recording behavior in a natural setting without interference or manipulation by the researcher. It does not aim to recreate natural conditions in a laboratory setting.
I think it has to do with the quasi you cannot randomly assign people to groups and cannot infer causality. With correlational you are simply examine the relationship between two nominal variables.
how does experimental research differ importantly from correlational research methods Correlational Research are predictions and are mostly based on statistics. Whereas Experimental Research is based on experiment and explaination.
An experiment involves intentionally manipulating variables to observe the effect on a phenomenon, while an observation involves simply witnessing and recording a phenomenon without intervention. Experiments aim to establish cause-and-effect relationships, whereas observations focus on describing and documenting patterns or behaviors.

in psychology terms what is a naturalistic experiment and a longitudinal study?

Experiments with a control and variable...not correlational studies because they don't ensure that the cause led directly to the "effects"

It is the result of the experiment. It is the value of the observation.
You call it an OBSERVATION.
an inital observation is the basic and main observation of the experiment
observation
It means what you saw during the experiment.
To give final result to our observation
