a field study examining cultural beliefs about housing in a remote village
Reason: folk culture is typically small-scale, rural, and material (houses, tools, crafts) and transmitted locally; studying housing in a remote village via fieldwork directly accesses that material culture. The other options reflect popular culture, broad statistical data, or non‑material customs and are less suitable.
