Out of the following research methods, the method of naturalistic observation presents the greatest risk of collecting evidence that may not represent what can generally be considered true.

Explanation:

Naturalistic observation of subjects to fetch data may end up covering data that is not completely relevant to the study. Moreover, if the subject comes to know that he is being observed, there may arise a possibility of deceptive or intentionally change behavior. The data obtained from naturalistic observation cannot also be completely relied upon for the reason that the observation may be faulty.
