Sociology


 Sociology is a systematic method of observing, identifying, and measuring different social aspects of human behaviour to understand and find a better way to solve any social problem.


Sociological imagination:

All sociologists have different ways of explaining how we should define sociology and measure it, but they have one thing in common: sociological imagination. It means an individual's issues can also be taken as group issues—for example, hair fall.


Three additional ideas:

1. Micro, Macro, and global interaction:

Micro is individual behaviour like waking up in the morning simultaneously. Or a study group.

Macro means when a group does the same thing as a student’s study time.

Global reflects the same situation between different nations, like the Water source problem.


2. Behaviour figuration:

It is a process where individual activity combines with group behaviour, like a morning walk. A group of people do that. But if an individual doesn't do it, there won't be any morning walks. This process means that individuals and social activities are combined behaviours. 


3. Quantitative Sociology:

Quantitative Sociology means following a proven statistical measurement to identify any problem, like doing a survey.
