eneseteatamispõhisel

eneseteatamispõhisel is an Estonian phrase that translates to "based on self-reporting" or "on a self-reporting basis". It refers to a method or process where information is gathered directly from individuals about their own experiences, behaviors, attitudes, or characteristics. This approach is common in various fields, including research, surveys, and data collection.

In research, self-reporting often involves participants filling out questionnaires, answering interview questions, or keeping diaries to record their thoughts and actions. This method can provide valuable qualitative and quantitative data that might be difficult or impossible to obtain through observation or objective measurement. For example, in psychological studies, individuals may self-report on their mood, stress levels, or social interactions.

However, self-reporting also has limitations. Participants may intentionally or unintentionally misrepresent their experiences due to social desirability bias, memory inaccuracies, or a lack of self-awareness. The interpretation of data collected through self-reporting requires careful consideration of these potential biases. Despite these challenges, eneseteatamispõhisel remains a widely used and important method for gathering information about individual perspectives and subjective states.
