Answer 1

The disadvantages of naturalistic observation are given in the first web site. For correlational research (second site) a disadvantage is that although their may be a correlation between behaviors, it doesn't prove a a cause and effect relationship.

I suggest you Google each of the other research methods to find their disadvantages.

Answer 4

You need to recommend one of these methods for the psychologist's experiment. Before you can do this, though, you need to know:

What does the psychologist want to prove? What is the hypothesis of his/her experiment?

Answer 5

As with any method, you need to be aware of your goals (as per Ms. Sue), how well the chosen method will help you reach this goal, the costs (time, effort and money) of using any particular method, and the resources available to you — or your hypothetical psychologist.

I hope this helps a little more. Thanks for asking.
