Verified step by step guidance

Understand the problem: The question is asking for the best method to determine the cause of a behavior. This involves identifying a method that allows for the establishment of cause-and-effect relationships.

Review the options: Consider each method mentioned (survey, hypothesis, observation process, experiment) and their ability to determine causality.

Analyze the survey method: Surveys are useful for gathering data on people's opinions, attitudes, or behaviors, but they do not establish causality.

Consider the hypothesis: A hypothesis is a proposed explanation for a phenomenon, but it is not a method for determining causality on its own.

Evaluate the experiment: Experiments involve manipulating one variable to see the effect on another, allowing researchers to establish cause-and-effect relationships. This makes experiments the best method for determining the cause of a behavior.
