Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
Participant observers often use a combination of positioning approaches. Single positioning means staying in a single location for a period to observe transactions in that location. Multiple positioning involves moving around the site to observe behaviors from different locations. Mobile positioning involves following a person throughout a given activity or period. The level of participation may change during a study or stay the same. Participant observers ask questions of group members. Logs of daily events and field notes of the observer's experiences and interpretations constitute the major data collection instruments.
