What Types Of Data And Evidence Do Sociologists Use?
Akopọ
Every claim a sociologist makes has to rest on evidence, but evidence comes in very different shapes. Some data the researcher gathers fresh, by asking and watching for themselves; other data already exists, sitting in government records, old diaries, newspapers and social-media feeds, waiting to be used. Some evidence is a wall of numbers; some is a page of someone's own words. Knowing which kind to trust, and for what, is a core skill of the subject.
This lesson sorts the sociologist's evidence into clear families: primary versus secondary sources, and quantitative versus qualitative data. You will learn the strengths and limitations of each, meet the main secondary sources from official statistics to digital data, and see how findings are presented in tables, charts and graphs. By the end you will be able to judge any piece of evidence the way an examiner expects.
