Write about Research Methodology for my Project |
| Answer» Doing Sociology: Research Methods class 11 Notes Sociology\tSociological research can provide explanations for issues that affect us both as individuals and as members of larger groups.\tIt can help us to make the links between personal troubles and public issues, understanding, for example, how your social background can affect your educational attainment and why people in some countries die from diseases that have long since been eradicated in other parts of the world, etc.\tPeople hold a vast range of views on social issues, such as why certain people become criminals, why women are massively underrepresented in positions of power in the political and business world, and why fewer people attend religious services now than in the past.\tThe findings of sociological research should help lessen the misconceptions and prejudices that often form the basis of commonsense views on many important social issues.\tSociological research produces facts, knowledge, ideas, etc. Each of these has a particular meaning but can be seen as dimensions of a larger concept that is ‘evidence’. Evidence can be referred to as information that supports a statement. It can also be seen as a form of knowledge derived from various sources. Thus, sociological knowledge is derived from research.Steps in Research Process\tSelecting a topic and defining a problem: It relates to what a sociologist wants to know about. The selection may depend on the sociologist’s personal interest, relevance and even availability of funds.\tThe selected topic is defined in the form of a problem/a puzzle/question. This puzzle represents a gap in knowledge or understanding. For example, within the topic a lot of research questions can be framed, how far does the economic position of women lag behind that of men or does education lead to better *** ratio etc.\tReview of secondary literature: Here the sociologist familiarises himself/herself with existing literature on that topic. This literature could be in the form of books, journals, studies, newspaper articles etc. It helps the researcher sharpen his own research questions and also helps in making his own research questionnaire as well as the interview questions.\tFormulating the hypothesis: Hypothesis is an educated guess about what is going on. The hypothesis tries to answer the research questions before the data collection on the basis of the secondary review of literature. The factual material gathered will provide evidence either supporting or disapproving the hypothesis.\tChoosing the research method: Any one or a combination of one or more research methods can be used. There are a number of research methods and techniques of data collection such as surveys, observation, case study and interview. The choice of research method or technique depends on a number of factors:\t(a) The nature of research question being asked.\t(b) The time and resources available to researcher.\t(c) Size of community that needs to be studied.\t(d) Preferences of the researcher while some researchers are more comfortable with statistical method and others are more comfortable with anthropological method.\tCollecting the data and recording the information: The data that is collected needs to be both valid and reliable. It should be valid to the problem that the researcher seeks to find answer for.\tAnalysing the result: It is at this step that the hypothesis is tested. Analysis of the result requires specific technique ranging from statistical analysis to content analysis.\tSharing the result: The final report is written or published and shared with other social scientists. This stimulates ideas for further research.Methodological issues in social researchObjectivity\tIt is difficult to be objective because human world cannot be studied in isolation. Human beings may develop bias views and influence the thinking about the group as being a part of it.\tThe researcher who carries the research will also have his/her own values and prejudices about the social context they are studying and this may present as difficulty while gathering objective information.\tSince the problem of objectivity cannot be eliminated, a social researcher should try and reduce the problem of objectivity in the following ways:\tBy rigorously and continuously examining one’s own idea and feelings about the subject of research.\tThrough reflexivity: By taking an outsider’s perspective on the work and looking at the research through the eyes of others.\tBy consciously adopting the views of those who are the subjects of research.\tMaking a careful documentation of what one is doing, all procedures undertaken and formal citing of all sources of evidence\tObjectivityshouldbeapproachedasthegoalofacontinuousongoingprocessandnotasan already achieved end result. | |

What is division of labor? |
| Answer» Division of labour refers to the method of organising production where the work required to produce a product is divided into different specialized tasks with different workers specializing in each task.The four ways in which division of labour will influence production in an economy are as follows:i. Quality of production improves - Division of labour leads to an increase in the efficiency of labour which further leads not only to an increase in the quantity of output but also to an improvement in the quality of the produced goods and services.ii. Large scale production - Division of labour makes large scale production possible. Indeed, scale production requires division of labour. If a car manufacturing company, for instance wishes to make 10000 cars in a year but does not introduce division of labour in its factory, it will have to employ so many workers that it will not be an economically viable company. It is by virtue of division of labour that the company can produce 10000 cars per year with a reasonable number of workers.iii. Reduced average cost - Since division of labour increases total output, even with an unchanged number of labourers, the average cost of producing a commodity falls. This is a social advantage. Society can produce goods by incurring lower average cost of production.iv. Lower prices of output - The reduced average cost of the products leads to reduced prices of the outputs in the market. As a result, consumers are benefitted.<br>Divisin of Labour :\xa01. It means labour will be distributed among the different individuals having different skills of specializations.2. Division of labour became popular in modern and complex societies after the Industrial Revolution.3. With the increase of division of labour in modern societies, individuals are more than ever functionally connected by their mutual needs.4. Due to this process, every labour (usually) is specialised, individuals become more dependent on others to perform separate economic functions, which they are not able to carry out themselves | |
