Dexter Mercado · Answer 1

Examining domestic violence by conducting interviews.

Explanation:

This is the statement that is not an example of unobtrusive observation. Unobtrusive observation requires methods of data collection that do not involve direct elicitation of data from the research subjects. This means that the researcher obtains the necessary information without directly asking the subject. This is the option that does not demonstrate such a strategy, as the researcher is obtaining his information by conducting interviews.
