Which of the following observations of children is the most objective?

A. Chris took a toy truck from Alex. Alex cried, became angry because Chris took the truck, and then stamped his feet on the floor. He snatched the truck back from Chris, and ran to the caregiver.

B. Eddie went to the shelf and chose a teddy bear to play with. He took a plastic spoon and bowl and repeatedly moved the spoon from the bowl to the bear's mouth.

C. Joan was playing with blocks, building a structure, when Missy joined her. Joan looked afraid because Missy was much larger than she. But she eventually overcame her fear and let Missy play with the blocks.

D. When Ann finished drawing with crayons, she put them back in the box and returned the box to the shelf, whereas Sue, obviously less disciplined, left hers scattered on the table.

Respuesta :

B is the only answer that's truly an objective account, it doesn't involve opinion or approximate guesses based on observations.

I say this because in example A and example C both writers are assuming the child's feelings, whilst they may be correct it could be perceived differently by another. In case D an obvious bias is shown through saying that Sue was "obviously" less disciplined.

Therefore B is the only account that is truly objective in this instance, it states the facts and nothing more.
The answer is B because there are no opinions stated. The other answers all speak about how the narrator assumes the children's attitude while B is the only situation where the child does not feel an emotion or have a debatable characteristic.
