Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Physiological measures such as electroencephalography (EEG), functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and positron emission tomography (PET) directly measure brain activity and are therefore the most effective method of studying behavior at a neural level. Self-reports, naturalistic observation, and sampling behavior with tasks are all indirect measures of behavior and may not accurately reflect neural activity.
