What type of research involves collecting information from individuals without their knowledge or consent?

  1. Open-ended interviewing

  2. Qualitative research

  3. Descriptive research

  4. Passive observation

The correct answer is: Passive observation

Passive observation is the type of research that involves collecting information from individuals without their knowledge or consent. Open-ended interviewing, qualitative research, and descriptive research all require individuals to give their consent and knowledge before participating in the research. With passive observation, researchers observe and gather information without directly interacting with or informing the individuals being studied. It is important for researchers to consider ethical guidelines and ensure that participants are aware and willing to be a part of the research process.
