Sociology
Sociology can be considered a social science because:
its theories are logical, explicit and supported by empirical evidence
sociologists collect data in a relatively objective and systematic way
ideas and research findings are scrutinized by other sociologists
all of the above
all of the above
While sociology may not be like a natural science, it is generally regarded as a social science, because it follows some scientific principles. Sociologists construct theories that are different from common sense, by drawing on a range of data that they collect in a logical, disciplined, and systematic way. Their knowledge claims are supported by evidence from this data, which to some extent ‘speaks for itself’. Other researchers can scrutinize their ideas and research findings, and most sociologists are also reflexively self-critical. 16-17
