1) Sociology is a science that uses scientific methods in its investigation. Outline the sociological research procedure in its sequence.
Sociologists use the tools they have to design research that best fits the
Circumstances, issues, and questions they are investigating. There is no exact
Process that they follow in conducting their inquiries. There are, however, certain
Steps that all sociological research involves in some form and at some stage in
The research process.
Select and define a question. Sociologists can study anything in the social
World that catches their interest. Obviously, there is no end to the topics they
Might address. One of the first challenges sociologists face in conducting research is to refine their interest into a specific research question. These questions
May arise from some long-standing personal interest. The questions may be assigned by someone the sociologist works for, such as the head of a government agency. They may develop out of the sociologists’ conversations with professional colleagues, clients, students, or others even in nonacademic social situations. Stanley Milgram, for example, developed research based on discussions with his family (Takooshian 2000).
Learn what any existing research says. Like other scientific research, sociological investigation builds on what others have already learned about the topic at hand. An early step in the research process is to read the existing literature on the topic. Finding the work that has already been done on the topic in- volves a number of approaches, including visiting libraries, searching databases, and contacting other researchers interested in the topic.
By doing this background work, sociologists can discover what theories and methods have been applied in previous research.
