Question

You want to conduct a psychological research and must identify a way of collecting data. Your hypothesis is: Mental illnesses occur more frequently in people with top management jobs as opposed to lower level/non-management jobs.

Which of the following would be the least effective way to collecting data?

Question 5 options:

1)

naturalistic observation


2)

Interviews


3)

Reports from previous experiments.


4)

surveys

Answer 1

I would say 4. Also, in your post, "Question 5 options," was a little confusing. Since you did not label the problem as #5, it initially got me questioning if there was a 5th option that was omitted.
