Qualitative observation.
A qualitative observation. For example, your gender, or the colour of your eyes.
observation without numerical values are qualatative with numbers is quantatative
that apple is red (includes no numbers at all and it describes an apple which is an observation)
I cannot remember where I first learned this, but based on long-time experience and observation, I would say 30 years.
Qualitative observation.
Qualitative observations
state why an observation cannot be an inference
Because the ducks have different characteristics and cannot be classified
state why an observation cannot be an inference
A subjective observation cannot be seen; it is an idea, thought, or opinion. If you cannot see it, feel it, hear it, or smell it, it is a subjective observation.
A qualitive observation is an observation of a product of a reaction which cannot be measured numerically, e.g. colour, state of matter. A quantitive observation is an observation which can be measured, e.g. size, volume.
A qualitative observation. For example, your gender, or the colour of your eyes.
Scientific odservation refers to a body of techniques for investigating phenomena, acquiring new knowledge or correcting and intergrating previous knowledge.In naturalistic observation, the observer does not interfere with the environment at all, and may attempt to interact with the organisms as little as possible. The observer must remain neutral, not changing anything in the environment beyond the inevitable changes which occur as a result of the presence of an observer. No experiments are conducted, and intervention is generally not allowed.Covert observation involves observation of a population without alerting the population to the presence of an observer. This technique is often preferred in animal populations, as animals may behave differently when they know that they are being watched. Covert techniques can include planting hidden recording devices and building structures for concealment which allow people to see without being seen. In overt observation, the observed is aware of the observer; in naturalistic observation of humans, for ethical reasons, only overt observation can be used.One drawback to naturalistic observation is that researchers cannot manipulate, control, predict, or even fully understand variables. This can make it difficult to test and prove hypotheses, as experimental conditions cannot be set up. Another issue which can arise is the length of time it takes to conduct research, which can be a significant barrier for some researchers. It can be difficult to obtain support and funding when a project may take decades to complete.A clear advantage to naturalistic observation is that it allows researchers to see the natural behavior of the organisms they are interested in. This can provide very valuable information which may influence future experimental research and contribute to understanding of how the organism lives in the wild. For example, naturalistic observation has been used to help conservation groups understand why some species of animals are so hard to breed in captivity, and to identify issues such as habitat restrictions which need to be considered when trying to preserve wild populations of rare species.Naturalistic observation can also sometimes be the only way to collect data about some issues. For example, experiments on humans which could subject the humans to harm or put them at risk are not allowed. However, people can use naturalistic observation to collect information about human populations which live in risky or harmful environments.
indirect observation
because science is about facts, and facts cannot be determined without careful observation.
The bond type of as substance cannot be determined by observation only.
