What are some potential limitations of the methods that were used?

Observational methods can be utilized to provide descriptions of behaviors in both quantitative and qualitative research designs. In qualitative research, observations are generally recorded in great detail to investigate the ways in which people act and interact. In quantitative research, observation studies are very different and focus on a specific behavior that can be quantified in some way.

Discuss the use of systematic observations as a data collection procedure in quantitative research. Locate a research study on Proquest or EbscoHost that utilized systematic observations in their data collection procedures. Provide a description regarding how the systematic observations were conducted and how the behavior observed was quantified. What are some potential limitations of the methods that were used? Post should be at least 300 words.
