👉 Watched research, or observational studies, involve researchers observing and recording behaviors, interactions, or outcomes in natural settings without directly intervening or manipulating variables. This type of research is particularly useful for studying phenomena that are difficult to control in experimental settings, such as social behaviors, health outcomes, or educational practices. By collecting data through direct observation, often using tools like video recordings, surveys, or interviews, researchers can gather rich, contextual insights into how and why certain behaviors or outcomes occur. While watched research can provide valuable real-world evidence, it may be limited by issues like observer bias and the inability to establish causality due to the lack of control over variables.
