Arguments Against Naturalistic Observation
That’s why I considered the Naturalistic observation as the best form of research.
Children are so intuitive, and to be able to observe undetected will be a way of challenging the researchers, since we all know once a child senses that she/he is been observed , immediately their demeanor will shift and mold to the person in cause.
Children should never be use as lab rats.

    I have followed the ethical guideline and obtained the child's permission through age appropriate conversation, as it states in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC 1989) in Study Topic 5 (p.117) 'This is an international agreement protecting children's rights'.Which means that children are to be treated as an individual person and not to be ignored. I have also obtained permission from parents through the ethical guideline which detailed the reasons why observation was being carried out and what will be involved. And the child or the parents involved will be able to withdraw from the activities and observation at any time. I will change the name of the learner to maintain confidentiality, protect identity and anonymity.…

    The purpose of this study was to conduct observations, using two different methods, on children, between the ages of 4-5, to understand their emotional behaviors in a social and learning environment as well as determining which method of observation was more reliable.

A naturalistic observation method is when a researcher studies a person or group in their natural environment or setting; the behavior that is observed is one that occurs in a person’s everyday life. In contrast, an experimental observation method is when a researcher is studying a specific behavior in a laboratory-like environment.…
