Sociological Methods & Research

Sociological methods and research involve studying how society operates by collecting, analyzing, and interpreting data about people's behaviors, interactions, and social structures. Researchers use techniques like surveys, interviews, observations, and analyzing existing data to understand patterns and relationships within communities. The goal is to gain insights into social phenomena, influences, and inequalities, allowing for informed conclusions about how societies function and how social change occurs. These methods ensure that findings are reliable and valid, helping us better understand the complexities of human behavior in social contexts.
