Explanation
★A field study is related to real-life situations, so that is the answer.
★A field study is carried out in the natural, everyday setting where behaviour actually happens.
★So it deals with real-life situations rather than artificial ones.
★Controlled experimental situations belong to the laboratory or a controlled field experiment.
★Laboratory situations are artificial and controlled, the opposite of the field.
★Imaginary situations are not studied at all in a field study, so it is related to real-life situations.
