Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Dr. Jimand is conducting naturalistic observation by observing the behavior of Bosnian students in their natural environment (dorm and classes). Formal experimentation involves manipulating variables and controlling the environment, which is not happening in this scenario. The survey method involves collecting data through self-reported responses, and the clinical method involves the diagnosis and treatment of mental health conditions, neither of which apply here.
