An EOA must demonstrate proficiency in the following other characteristics or work styles:
a. Professionalism
b. Objectivity
c. Maturity
d. Open-mindedness
Advantages of records and reports:
1. Unchangeable (if available)
2. Easily expressed for comparison (ratio, percentage, etc.)
3. Easily accessible
4. Easily interpreted and compared with other data sources
Disadvantages of records and reports:
1. Might not be available
2. Might not be accurate
3. Might require extensive search of records to obtain needed data.
Disadvantages of using observation (I pg 6-8)
a. Interpretation/coding is required to use data. As observations move away from the more
structured formats, interpretations and coding must be used in order to compile the data.
This process is time-consuming and requires some skill. If you hire an expert or outside
consultant, it can become expensive. Thus, as with interviews, coding and interpretation can
be expensive, requires time, and can be a source of bias
