Ethnographers

Question

Ethnographers

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ethnographers take a holistic approach to understanding a culture or setting, meaning they analyze and observe multiple factors such as customs, values, language, religion, and social structures. They also interact and engage with the people they are studying to gain a deeper understanding of their perspectives and behaviors. Short-term studies (A) may not provide sufficient data, and examining factors that make a culture unique (B) is part of a holistic approach, but not the only goal. While observing people in a setting (D) is part of ethnographic research, interaction is a crucial component as well.
