N2  - "Observing what people do is arguably a more valid method than relying on what they say they do. In his Observation Techniques: Structured to Unstructured Bill Gillham provides detailed guidance on: event and interval sampling; observation as an experimental method; semi-structured, naturalistic observation; participant observation in real-life settings (ethnography); and the ethical dilemmas faced when using observation as a research tool."--BOOK JACKET
