Muhtasari	Telephone-assisted field notes is a data collection technique in which a field researcher verbally dictates observational notes via telephone — either to a live transcriptionist, an answering service, or a voicemail/recording system — immediately after or during a field encounter. It preserves the immediacy and richness of traditional field notes while enabling the researcher to record observations quickly and hands-free when written note-taking is impractical or disruptive.	Non-participant observation is a data-collection method in which the researcher observes behavior, interactions, or events in a natural or structured setting without joining or influencing the activity under study. The observer maintains a deliberate distance from participants to minimize their own effect on the phenomena being recorded, producing field notes, behavioral tallies, or recordings that reflect naturally occurring behavior rather than behavior shaped by researcher involvement.
