The video tutorial explains the differences between sample surveys, experiments, and observational studies. It discusses the purpose, advantages, and disadvantages of each method.

Observational studies are simple and inexpensive but cannot determine causation and may introduce observer bias. The tutorial helps viewers understand when to use each method based on their research goals.
