Zeus gives the task of creating humans to Prometheus and his brother Epimetheus. Epimetheus, whose name means “afterthought,” grants the animal kingdom all the joys of creation—fur, wings, shells, and so on—until there seems to be nothing left for man. He appeals to Prometheus for help.

As further revenge against Prometheus and the powers he has given man, Zeus creates a woman named Pandora. Zeus gives her a box and forbids her from opening it. He sends her down to earth, where her insatiable curiosity leads her to open the lid. Out fly plagues, sorrow, mischief, and all other misfortunes that can plague mankind. Horrified, Pandora attempts to shut the lid of the box, but it is too late. The only good element to fly out of the box is hope

Question

Which type of research study would best be used to determine how aggressive children are while playing at a schoolyard during recess?

a. confounding

b. case study

c. introspection

d. naturalistic observation

e. experiment

D. Naturalistic observation

Naturalistic research as opposed to analog research is reasearch whereby a subject is observed while subject is in his natural habitat and free of manipulation. This is illustrated in the example above where aggressive children could be observed while in their school playing ground. This would leave the subject oblivious of the observer and therefore subject would be his natural self.
