    Study Notes

    Measuring Interest

    • Interviews are a common method used to measure interest.
    • Interviews may not fully capture the nuanced and sometimes subconscious aspects of interest, leading to potential subjectivity.
    • Surveys can sometimes be restricted to reporting quantifiable aspects of interest, neglecting emotional engagement and deeper levels of interest.
    • Observational methods provide valuable insights into genuine interest by capturing non-verbal cues and behavioral patterns.
    • The use of self-report techniques might be misleading when assessing sustained interest, as individuals' responses can be influenced by factors like social desirability bias.
