Strengths and weaknesses of participant observation as a method

Explanation:

  • There are some strengths and some weaknesses of the observations in research.  
  • The strengths are that they give us a very detailed data about research by indulging the insider's own life.  
  • They give us a chance to see through their perspectives.  
  • Fieldwork like this gives us detailed information rather than the one with a very short time span.  
  • It eliminates all the bias data as we consult the insider directly.  
  • The weaknesses are also given and these are there can be still some non-bias data as we can not eliminate human error.  
  • It is also weak due to the one-sided relationship of the scientist with the insider.  
  • It should be like where both researchers and responders should directly report them.
