Characteristics of Observation:
Observation is a method of data collection involving direct and systematic monitoring of phenomena. Key characteristics include objectivity, where the observer avoids bias; non-invasiveness, as observations should not disrupt natural behavior; selectivity, focusing on specific aspects; systematicity, following a predetermined plan; and reliability, ensuring consistency in recorded data. Observations can be either participant or non-participant, involve qualitative or quantitative data, and are valuable for understanding behaviors, contexts, or events in their natural settings.
