Story of Bali, Indonesia

Their recording of data was highly systematic, as illustrated by their method of taking and editing notes (Mead and MacGregor, 1951: 195-7). -They used the participant observer technique: they appeared to have gathered data on as many natural aspects of Balinese life as possible, although occasionally they arranged a specific event, such as a dance performance.

Their photographic method was innovative and impressive, although this was never used again by Bateson and little used by other anthropologists. This innovation was a step towards increased objectivity. According to them, the method of the monograph was to 'state intangible relationships among different types of culturally standardized behavior by placing side by side mutually relevant photographs'. This often meant placing, on one page, a variety of different situations illustrative of the culturally standardized behavior relevant to a concept (e.g., 'defense of the mouth' or 'parents as witch or dragon), Some plates illustrated behavior at discrete cultural events, such as the 210th day birthday celebration, while others, showed grouping of related general behavior, such as play by little girls or illustrated more general ,issues, such as rites of passage and stages of child development
