,Chapter 1 The nature and process of social research
1.1 Introduction
Two reasons for social scientists need to understand social research methods:
1. this understanding should help you avoid some of the errors and difficulties that can arise when conducting social
research.
2. Help to understand the research methods used in the published work of others.
1.2 Social research: what is it and why do it?
What is ‘social research’?
Academic research conducted by social scientists from a broad range of disciplines such as sociology, anthropology,
education, human geography, social policy, politics, and criminology.
Social research can be motivated by:
- Developments and changes in society
Why do social research?
Because social life is fascinating!
It is a way of searching for answers.
1.3 The context of social research methods
The variety of contextual factors:
Theory and its role in research:
- A theory is a group of ideas that aims to explain something, in this case the social world.
- Theories have a significant influence on the research topic being investigated, both in terms of what is studied and how
finding are interpreted.
Existing knowledge: the literature:
- When conducting research, you must be familiar with the literature on the topic you are investigating so that you can
build on it and avoid repeating work that has already been done.
Epistemological and ontological questions:
- Epistemological: Are views about how knowledge should be produced. Raising questions about how the social world
should be studied and whether the scientific approach is the right one for social research
- Ontological: Are views about the nature of the social world, and social phenomena.
Values, ethics, and politics:
, - The values of the research community have significant implications for research.
- Ethical issues have always been central in social research
- Social research operates within a wider political context
