Observational data refers to data collected through direct observation of phenomena. This can include field notes, journals, or even videotaping, where the researcher simply observes and records what is happening, without intervening or manipulating any variables. Questionnaires and examinations involve active participation from the subjects being studied, while existing data refers to data that has already been collected and is available for analysis. Therefore, the best choice in this scenario is C – observational data.
