Questionings Questionings = information acquisition based on the direct or indirect contact with the respondent (interviewed). The base lies in communication between the researcher (interviewer) and the interviewed. This communication can be either director indirect.
Questionings direct and indirect Direct questionings= interview, personal dialogue, „face to face" communication. The advantage is a quick response; as the disadvantage are considered high costs and also it is more time demanding. Indirect questionings= questionnaire (disadvantage is a lower return rate), telephone interview (often seen as privacy interruption, the call needs to be timed correctly), email interview (disadvantage again a lower return rate, advantage is low costs and fastness).
The results of questioning depend on the selection, number and quality of the questions. The basic principles are: -understandably asked questions (to consider e.g. the education of the interviewed) -the questions should be understandable immediately(meaning: no further explanation needed) -questions must not include ambiguous expressions, slang, vulgarism, too many foreign words -not too many questions (must not restrain) -the questions should be easily rememberable Principles of correct questioning
Watching Watching is an aimed observation and noticing of a specific event or process without the observer‘s (=person processing the observation) interruption. Watching can be: Evidential– the observer is present Hidden–the observer is not present, e.g. so that does not disturb the process (e.g. watching by camera)

The experiment can be performed: • in a laboratory - simulated conditions • in a field– natural conditions Example: Experiment in natural conditions can be used e.g. when finding out the impact of any new advert when changing the packaging …
