The methods differ in terms of suitability and areas of application. Inquiry is most appropriate in the behavioral and social sciences, and experiments are applied to natural and physical disciplines while participant observation is better suited to different fieldwork. The methods also differ in the aims and objectives of the study. Participant observation aims to provide detailed notes on what was observed during the study, and surveys focus on explaining the desires of each member of a certain sample group, while the experiment aims to explain the characteristics of the participants and other aspects. The survey information uses a set of precisely defined questions. and instructions where responses are recorded. Participant observation information can be presented in the form of images, sketches, maps, and recordings, among others. The experiments provide a written response regarding the readings and results (Gravetter & Forzano, 2018). Research methods use different population sample sizes. Surveys use a relatively large population sample, while experiments and participant observation use a relatively small population sample. This creates a difference in the response rate and the time taken to reach the final decision. Additionally, the methods are applied in various forms of research. Experiments are used when the research is experimental, while surveys are used when the study is descriptive. In contrast, the participant observation approach is used when the research is observational
