    Answer: She might lose the objectivity required to conduct scientific observation.

    Explanation: When participants involved in a particular study are observed or studied while in their natural environment without being confined to a laboratory environment or placed under conditions defined by the researcher. Naturalistic participant observation might be adopted in other to save cost involved in conducting a laboratory research. However, one major setback of naturalistic participant observation is the tendency to lose track of objectives of a scientific study as it becomes difficult to identify the exact cause of observed behavior due to researcher's inability to control for external variability.

    She might lose the objectivity required to conduct scientific observation

    Explanation:

    Naturalistic observation refers to observation that is used to observe people in their natural setting while participant observation refers to being an active member of the group under observation.

    Tracy could lose her objectivity in natural observation since she could let biases come in while observing the behavior of organization members.
