Controlled observation is a type of observational study where thesituations areplanned by the researcher. This type of observation may be carried out in a laboratory type situation and because variables are manipulated is said to be high in control.
The weakness of the method is that it will be low in ecological validity compared to naturalistic observation. If participants are aware they are being studied they behave differently.

When a controlled experiment is not possible or practical, two types of scientific investigations are observation and modeling.
all it is is the uncontrolled experiment is a little bit different
There are several types of observation, including naturalistic observation, where researchers observe subjects in their natural environment without interference; participant observation, where the observer becomes part of the group being studied; and controlled observation, which occurs in a structured setting where variables can be manipulated. Other types include systematic observation, focusing on specific behaviors, and longitudinal observation, which tracks changes over time. Each type serves different research purposes and offers unique insights into behavior and interactions.
Systematic observation includes naturalistic observation, which is real-life observation, and structured observation, which takes place in a natural environment in which manipulation is involved
The different methods of observation include naturalistic observation, structured observation, participant observation, and controlled observation. Naturalistic observation involves observing subjects in their natural environment without interference. Structured observation involves creating specific conditions for observation. Participant observation involves the researcher actively participating in the environment being observed. Controlled observation involves manipulating and controlling variables during the observation process.
Three types of observation in language study are body language, the tone of the person, and the overall attitiude. That is the easiest way of determining the overall idea of what the person is trying to convey.
Observation
The difference is that naturalistic observation is a research method, this technique involves observing subjects in their natural environment. It is usual used in situations where conducing a lab research is unrealistic, cost prohibitive, or would unduly affect the subject's behaviour. And controlled observations are studies that the situations are planned by the researcher, this type of observation may be carried out in a laboratory type situation and because variables are manipulated and said to be high in control.One difference between them is that controlled observation will be low in ecological validity compared to naturalistic observation, if the participants are aware that they are being studied they may behave differently.

Qualitative observation is subjective. Quantitative observation is the result of controlled testing procedures with prescribed procedures in place. Quantitative testing is sometimes called empirical testing.
Laboratory observation takes place in a controlled environment where researchers manipulate variables, while naturalistic observation occurs in the subject's natural environment without interference. Laboratory observation allows for more precise control over variables and conditions, whereas naturalistic observation provides insights into real-world behaviors and interactions.
When a controlled experiment is not possible or practical, two types of scientific investigations are observation and modeling.
An experiment is an observation of natural phenomena carried out in a controlled manner so that the results can be duplicated. This typically involves testing a hypothesis by manipulating variables and measuring outcomes to draw conclusions based on the findings.
