naturalistic data  

Definición

  • Naturalistic data can be defined as data that make up records of human activities that are neither elicited by nor affected by the actions of social researchers. The test for whether data are naturalistic is if the social researcher is ill, interviews and ethnographic observations would have to be cancelled, but therapy sessions, parliamentary debates, and everyday phone calls would still take place.
