Scientific method in making sociological research?

Same scientific method that science uses...





1. Define the question


2. Gather information and resources (observe)


3. Form hypothesis


4. Perform "experiment" and collect data


5. Analyze data


6. Interpret data and draw conclusions that serve as a starting point for new hypothesis


7. Publish results


8. Retest (frequently done by other scientists)
