Unstructured interviews entail :

  • A.Systematic questioning
  • B.Reliable data
  • C.Natural conversation
  • D.Formal procedure

Answer: C

Unstructured interviews entail natural conversation.

In an unstructured interview the researcher has a topic or a few broad themes but no fixed questionnaire. Questions are framed as the talk develops, and the respondent is free to answer at length in his own words, so the interview resembles a natural conversation. This allows depth and the discovery of unexpected points.

Systematic questioning and a formal procedure are the marks of the structured interview, in which every respondent is asked the same questions in the same order. Reliable data, in the sense of results that can be repeated and compared, is a strength of structured interviewing; unstructured interviews trade some of that reliability for depth.
