Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Observer-as-participant describes a role where the researcher interacts with participants but does not become an active member of the group being studied. This means the researcher's interaction is not driven by being an actor within the interaction scene, distinguishing it from roles where researchers either fully participate or observe without any interaction.
