Answer to Question 1

Video recording provides a relatively permanent recording, allowing you to re-check your data to resolve ambiguities. At the same time, it's not perfect because a given camera angle will highlight some behaviors but may obscure other important ones.

Answer to Question 2

Sampling in observational research involves three different elements. First, who will be observed? The nature of the population needs to be determined. Second, what specific behaviors will be the focus of observations? Third, what kind of temporal sampling will be done: continuous, intermittent, time of day, etc.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
