An example(s) of the complete participant role is(are): joining a sorority or fraternity to study initiation rituals without revealing your identity as a researcher. standing at a street corner and watching whether males or females are more likely to jay-walk. telling a motorcycle gang that you are a researcher and would like to ride with them for a year tounderstand their interaction patterns. being a newspaper reporter who interviews union workers to learn about recent strike efforts. all of these choices are examples of the complete participant role.

Answer: the correct answer is joining a sorority or fraternity to study initiation rituals without revealing your identity as a researcher.

Step-by-step explanation:

A complete participant role.- In this role the observer is a detached observer where the researcher is neither seen nor noticed by participants. It’s one way of minimizing the Hawthorne Effect as participants are more likely to act natural when they don’t know they’re being observed.
