Full textAbstract:
The popularity of focus group interview has rapidly grown in the last two decades. After long-time period in which this technique had been practiced almost exclusively in marketing research it begins the period of its frequent application in a great number of academic fields (sociology, psychology, evaluation research, public opinion research, communication, medical care). Only with the intensification of investigations in which focus group interviewing has been applied it was enabled achieving of experience that can be methodologically generalized, with accompanying development of the technique. This text refers to the basic methodological principles of this technique's application. In the paper the methodological experiences are synthesized which are accumulated through an enormous number of foreign explorations, as well as in many-year research experience of the author.

Full textAbstract:
Digital sociology is a computational social science that uses modern information systems and technologies, has already formed. But the conflict with traditional sociology and its research methods has not yet been resolved. This conflict can be overcome if we remember that there is a common goal – the knowledge of the phenomena and processes of social life, which is primary in relation to the methods to be agreed upon. Digital transformation of sociology is essential, since 1) traditional sociological methods do not solve the problem of providing voluminous, reliable empirical data qualitatively and in a short time; 2) the transition from contact research methods to unobtrusive ones is in demand. The adaptation of four modern information technologies-cloud computing, big data, the Internet of things and artificial intelligence – for the purposes of sociology provides a qualitative transition in the methodology of knowledge of the digital society. Cloud computing provide researchers with tools, big data – research materials, Internet of things technology aimed at collecting indicators (receiving signals) in large volume, in real time, as direct, not indirect evidence of human behavior. The development of “artificial intelligence” technology expands the possibility of receiving processed signals of the quality of the social system without building a preliminary hypothesis, in a short time and on a large volume of processed data. Digital transformation of sociology does not mean abandoning the use of traditional methods of sociological analysis, but it involves expanding the competence of a sociologist, which requires a revision of University curricula. At the same time, combining the functions of an expert on the subject (sociologist) and data analyst in one specialist is assessed as unpromising, it is proposed to combine their professional competencies in working on unified research projects.

The origins and content of the methodology of scientific research programs of I. Lakatos are considered taking into account the problems and tasks of the history of sociology. The reception of the methodology of research programs in sociology can be explained by the relevance of the analytical model of the structure and dynamics of the research program in the analysis of sociological knowledge. Within the framework of sociological knowledge, metatheoretical, theoretical and empirical structural levels are analytically distinguished. Certain structural analogies are observed: between the “hard core” and “negative heuristics” of the research program, on the one hand, and metatheory, on the other; between the “protective belt” and the “positive heuristic” of the research program, on the one hand, and theory, on the other; between the empirical content of the research program, on the one hand, and the empirical basis of sociology, on the other. One can observe a number of analogies in the dynamics of functional connections between the structural components of the research program, on the one hand, and the dynamics of functional connections between metatheorizing, theorizing, and empirical analysis in sociology, on the other.

Full textAbstract:
This dissertation examines how disability researchers define disability. It is based on four studies. The first describes different definitions of disability in disability research. The second study is a conceptual analysis of the use of disability in a sample of disability research classics. In this study, it is evident that use of the concept is all but clear. It is concluded that especially environmentally based disability definitions would benefit from further empirical investigations. The notion that environmental factors (such as barriers) are a causal aspect of disability is rather widely accepted among disability researchers. However, it has not been empirically studied to such an extent that it is possible to construct workable theories of this relationship.
The third study focuses on administrative definitions of disability and investigates the possibility of using data on disabled people that have been gathered by Swedish welfare authorities. It is concluded that rich data are available, but also that researchers must scrutinize how disability has been defined in these contexts. These authorities often start from medical understandings of disability, which may clash with contemporary understandings of disability as being environmentally based.
The fourth study is a statistical analysis of the effects of different disability definitions on dependent variables. The analyses emphasize variables often included in studies of living conditions. There are major effects of choice of disability definition on the outcome in relation to such variables.
The dissertation strongly rejects efforts to standardize disability definitions; different analytical purposes require different kinds of conceptualizations. Instead, the dissertation suggests that case-constructing reflexivity be conducted. Case-constructing reflexivity means that the researcher starts with a careful analysis of how disability is best defined in relation to the aims of the study, and continues by being constantly aware of how the choice of definition may affect sampling, analyses and results.

Full textAbstract:
Extensive research suggests organizations have unique guiding principles, called core values, which play a central role in strategic decision making, sustaining high-performance cultures, and guiding organizational culture change. Although the Competing Values Framework (CVF) has been widely used to identify a standardized set of core values, it has not been used to identify unique core values at a given organizations. Unique core values help to distinguish organizations and drive market success.
The present research focused on development of a technique to extend the application of the CVF to identify the core values unique to a given organization. The CVF-based Core Values Identification Technique (CCVI) was developed and empirically tested at three companies. Data collection methods included semi-structured interviews, review of documents, participant observation and the standard CVF-based Organizational Culture Assessment Instrument (OCAI). The data analysis employed grounded theory methods in conjunction with the standard OCAI analysis.
The primary research result is the iteratively developed and empirically tested tool, the CCVI Technique. Secondary research results include the identification of unique core values at each of the three participating companies. Lessons learned and the rationale for making modifications to the technique based on the case studies, along with best practices for utilization and opportunities for informing organizational change efforts are discussed.

Thesis (MPhil)--Stellenbosch University, 2001.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: It is widely accepted that the Internet has become a valuable resource for social scientists, not just for the purpose of information exchange; via e-mail, discussion groups and electronic journals, but also as a medium for data collection. Its global nature gives a researcher access to a vast range of individuals located around the world. It also opens up access to difficult to hitherto penetrate study areas, such as sensitive research on deviant behaviour. Further, it is claimed that considerable savings to both research budgets and time frames are made possible with the new technology. It is not surprising, therefore, that a substantial body of research, employing the Internet as the primary means of data collection, already exists. This raises a number of questions as to how the Internet fares as a research tool. Are there any important methodological issues that this new approach raises? Do the traditional research methods suffice? Or are adaptations to existing methods necessary when difficulties are encountered? Does such changes affect the more fundamental question of the research design? These questions are considered in this thesis. To answer them, I consider two different types of empirical research designs. The first,' survey research, is a quantitative, numerical design that traditionally has a high level of control. I consider in detail issues of sampling, including non-response, and questionnaire design. The second design examined, ethnographic research, is qualitative, textual and generally has a low level of researcher control. I address the methods used in cyber ethnography and then discuss the considerable ethical concerns that feature in such research. I conclude that, on the whole, the existing methods can be transferred to Internet research. Indeed, some of the problems faced in traditional research are also considerations in Internet studies and can be overcome by employing similar techniques, such as using incentives to reduce non-response rates. However, a number of new problems emerge, such as the lack of paralinguistic cues, which require adaptations to the existing methods in order to produce results that can be considered valid and reliable. However, I also argue that these necessary adaptations to the methods do not affect the underlying principles found in the research design.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Dit word algemeen aanvaar dat die Internet In waardevolle hulpmiddel is vir sosiaalwetenskaplikes; nie net vir die uitruil van inligting deur middel van e-pos, besprekingsforums en elektroniese joernale nie, maar ook as In instrument om inligting te versamel. Die globale aard van die internet gee die navorser toegang to In wye spektrum individue internasionaal. Dit verleen ook toegang tot moeilike navorsingsareas, soos sensitiewe navorsing oor afwykende gedrag. Verder word beweer dat dit aansienlike besparings moontlik kan maak vir beide die navorsingsbegroting en tydraamwerk. Dit is dus nie verbasend dat In substansiële hoeveelheid van navorsing, wat die Internet as die primêre bron van dataversameling gebruik, reeds bestaan nie. Dit laat verskeie vrae ontstaan oor hoe die Internet vaar as In navorsingshulpmiddel. Is daar enige belangrike metodologiese kwessies wat hierdie nuwe metode aanraak? Is die tradisionele metodes voldoende? Of moet daar veranderinge aan die huidige metodes aangebring word wanneer probleme ontstaan? Sal hierdie veranderinge die fundamentele aspekte van navorsingsontwerp beïnvloed? Die vrae saloorweeg word in hierdie tesis. Ek gebruik twee empiriese navorsingsontwerpe om die vrae te beantwoord. Die eerste, steekproefnavorsing, is In kwantitatiewe ontwerp wat tradisioneel In hoë vlak van beheer toon. Ek ondersoek in detail kwessies van steekproewe, insluitend geen respons en vraelysontwerp. Die tweede ontwerp wat ondersoek word, etnografiese navorsing, is kwalitatief, tekstueel en toon in die algemeen In lae vlak van navorser beheer. Ek ondersoek die metodes wat gebruik word in kuberetnografie en bespreek dan die etiese vraagstukke wat hierdie navorsing kenmerk. Ek kom tot die gevolgtrekking dat oor die algemeen die huidige metodes toegepas kan word op Internetnavorsing. Inderdaad kan van die probleme wat ondervind word in tradisionele navorsing ook ondervind word in Internet studies en ook hier kan dit oorkom word deur die gebruik van soortgelyke tegnieke, soos om aansporingsbonusse om geen responskoerse te verminder, hoewel daar nuwe probleme opduik, soos die gebrek aan para-taalkundige wenke. Dit noodsaak veranderinge aan die huidige metodes om resultate te lewer wat geldig en betroubaar is. Ek redeneer egter ook dat hierdie nodige veranderinge aan die metodes nie onderliggende beginsels van navorsingsontwerp verander nie.

Full textAbstract:
Too many students leave school without even the essential skills (ACT, 2011), and many others are so drained by the experience they lack a desire to continue on to a post-secondary education. Academic engagement has emerged as a construct representing students’ personal investment in school (Greenwood, Delquadri, & Hall, 1984), and may be a psychological variable which can be intervened on. However, interventions must occur as quickly as possible to maximize their efficiency (Heckman, 2007). Students’ peer groups may be a particularly potent venue of intervention, however several options exist for how to go about measuring their social networks.
In this thesis, social networking data of the only middle school of a small town in the north-eastern United States is analyzed to determine the properties of two collection methods (self-reported networks and participant observations) and four network identification methods (probability scores, reciprocal nominations, factor-analyses, and rule-based). Analyses overwhelmingly supported participant observations as a more inclusive, less biased data collection method than self-reports. Meanwhile, hypothesis tests were somewhat mixed on the most inclusive, least biased network identification method, but after a consideration of the findings and the structural properties of each network, the probability score method was deemed the most useful network. Implications, future research, strengths, and limitations are discussed.

Thesis (PhD (Social Science Research Methodology))--University of Stellenbosch, 2011.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study aimed at establishing whether or not an integrated and appropriate system exists for the evaluation of research in the South African higher education system. As background to the assessment of research in South African higher education, models of research evaluation from other countries were reviewed and served as reference to the discussions on the local efforts. In each case the higher education research systems were reviewed, including existing efforts of research evaluation that exits alongside the systems. The review followed a pattern that focuses on areas including the history and rationale, purpose (s) for research evaluation, political/transformation contributions and methodological issues for a clearer understanding of the contributions made by the efforts. The study followed a multiple-case study approach to review the models and the South African situation, with the local research evaluation efforts embedded within the study of South Africa as a case. Five themes guided the reviews that were apparent for the final discussions of the study: the rationale and purpose of research evaluation, units of analysis used in the evaluation, dimensions/criteria used in research evaluation, governance and management of research evaluation processes and methodological issues related to research evaluation. The study revealed that none of the fragmented South African research evaluation efforts is suitable to deal with the transformation requirements expected of higher education institutions. This is mainly because of the voluntary nature of the current initiatives and their focus on the lowest level of units of analysis – the individual researcher. The one effort that would be better suited to meet the transformation imperatives – the HEQC institutional audits - does not concentrate on research exclusively but collectively addresses all core activities in institutions, reducing the attention necessary for research evaluation to make a meaningful contribution to higher education research. The study suggested a comprehensive design for the framework of South African research evaluation. The purpose identified for the envisaged exercise is the development and improvement of quality research of international standards across the system of higher education in order for research to make meaningful contributions to national demands. Programmes/departments in the higher education institutions are suggested as the units of analysis in which quality, productivity, relevance and viability serve as criteria for evaluation.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie poog om vas te stel of 'n geïntegreerde en toepaslike stelsel bestaan vir die evaluering van navorsing in die Suid-Afrikaanse hoër onderwys stelsel. As agtergrond tot die beoordeling van navorsing in Suid-Afrikaanse hoër onderwys, word ‘n oorsig verskaf van die modelle van navorsing evaluering van ander lande. Dit het gedien as verwysing vir die besprekings oor die plaaslike pogings. In elke geval is ‘n oorsig gebied van die hoër onderwys navorsingstelsels , insluitend die bestaande pogings tot navorsing evaluering. Die oorsigte fokus op gebiede soos die geskiedenis en die rasionaal, doel van navorsing evaluering, politiese / transformasie bydraes en metodologiese vraagstukke vir' n beter begrip van die bydraes wat gemaak word deur die pogings. Die studie volg 'n meervoudige gevallestudie benadering tot die modelle en die Suid-Afrikaanse situasie, met die plaaslike navorsing evaluering pogings onderliggend in die Suid-Afrikaanse gevallestudie. Die oorsigte word gelei deur vyf temas: die rasionaal en doel van die navorsing evaluering, eenhede van analise wat gebruik word in die evaluering, dimensies / kriteria wat gebruik word in navorsing evaluering, beheer en bestuur van navorsing, en metodologiese evalueringsprosesse kwessies met betrekking tot navorsing evaluering. Hierdie temas is duidelik in die finale bespreking van die studie. Die studie het aangetoon dat nie een van die gefragmenteerde Suid-Afrikaanse navorsing evaluering pogings geskik is om die transformasie verwagtinge van hoër onderwys instellings te hanteer nie. Dit is hoofsaaklik as gevolg van die vrywillige aard van die huidige inisiatiewe en hul fokus op die laagste vlak van die eenhede van analise - die individuele navorser. Die een poging wat beter geskik sou wees die transformasiedoelwitte te ontmoet - die HEQC institusionele oudits - konsentreer nie uitsluitlik op navorsing nie, maar spreek gesamentlik alle kern aktiwiteite in instellings aan. Dit verminder die aandag wat nodig is vir navorsing evaluering om 'n betekenisvolle bydrae te lewer tot hoër onderwys navorsing . Die studie stel 'n omvattende ontwerp voor vir die raamwerk van Suid-Afrikaanse navorsing evaluering. Die doel wat vir die beoogde oefening geïdentifiseer word, is die ontwikkeling en verbetering van die kwaliteit navorsing van internasionale standaarde oor die stelsel van hoër onderwys sodat die navorsing betekenisvolle bydraes kan lewer tot die nasionale vereistes. Programme / departemente in die hoër onderwys instellings word voorgestel as die eenhede van analise waarin gehalte, produktiwiteit, relevansie en lewensvatbaarheid dien as kriteria vir evaluering.

Resumo: Esta dissertação trata da Pesquisa UNESCO acerca das relaçoes raciais, coordenada, no caso da cidade de Sao Paulo, por Florestan Fernandes e Roger Bastide. Buscou-se reconstruir o procedimento da investigaça?o e as técnicas de pesquisa empírica mobilizadas, em especial o contato entre pesquisadores acadêmicos e intelectuais negros identificados com os movimentos sociais do "meio negro" de Sa?o Paulo. A metodologia utilizada consistiu na ana?lise conjunta da tese de cátedra de Fernandes de 1964 intitulada A integraça?o do negro na sociedade de classes e da documentaça?o referente ao material empírico coletado em sua forma original, presente no Fundo Florestan Fernandes (localizado na Biblioteca Comunita?ria da Universidade Federal de Sa?o Carlos), procurando estabelecer conexões entre a interpretação sociológica e o contexto original da pesquisa empírica, por meio da análise e explicitação do tratamento e recorte do material bruto coletado realizados por Florestan Fernandes. A riqueza do material empi?rico comprova a importância e a complexidade da interaça?o entre a investigaça?o sociolo?gica e meio social. Os documentos do Fundo evidenciam a pluralidade de te?cnicas de pesquisa mobilizadas pelos investigadores para coletar dados por meio da criação de situaço?es de dia?logo com os intelectuais negros colaboradores: histo?rias de vida, estudos de caso, observaço?es em massa em situaço?es individuais (por meio de questiona?rios) e em situaço?es grupais (por meio de onze Mesas Redondas realizadas em 1951 e que reuniram pesquisadores brancos e intelectuais do "meio negro"). A análise das histórias de vida de José Correia Leite e Francisco Lucrécio, ambas coletadas por Renato Jardim Moreira, da monografia "Movimentos sociais no meio negro" e das atas disponíveis das Mesas Redondas compõem o núcleo do tratamento que se deu ao material do Fundo, em conjunto com a organização de um apêndice que fornece um guia para futuros pesquisadores interessados na exploração de todo o material original disponível
Abstract: This thesis deals with the UNESCO Research on Racial Relations, coordinated in São Paulo by Florestan Fernandes and Roger Bastide. The objective was to reconstruct the investigation's procedure and the techniques of empirical research that were utilized, specially the contact between the sociologists involved and black intellectuals identified with the social movements in São Paulo's "black milieu". The methodology consisted in the joint analysis of the 1964 Fernandes' Full Professor Thesis entitled A integração do negro na sociedade de classes and the collected empirical material in its original form, at the "Fundo Florestan Fernandes" (located in the Federal University of São Carlos' Community Library), seeking to establish connections between the sociological interpretation of Fernandes' work and the empirical research's original context, through the analysis of the treatment and interpretation of the raw material collected, performed by Florestan Fernandes. The extent of the empirical data collected indicates the importance and the complexity of the interaction between sociological research and social movements. The documents located at Fundo Florestan Fernandes show the diversity of the techniques that were employed by creating situations of dialogue with black intellectuals: Life Stories; Case Studies; Individual Mass Observations (by the use of questionnaires) and Mass Observations in Group Situations (by the organization of eleven Round Tables with black intellectuals in 1951). The material that was analyzed in this thesis is that of two Life Stories, of José Correia Leite and Francisco Lucrécio, collected by the sociologist Renato Jardim Moreira; the Case Study "Social Movements in the Black Milieu", written by Correia Leite and Moreira; and the transcripts of the Round Tables. In addition, it was made an Appendix with a guide to future researchers interested in the entire collection of empirical material that is available at the "Fundo Florestan Fernandes"

Thesis (MA)--Stellenbosch University, 2001.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Discourse about the human world has, since Socrates, been structured around the assumption that one view of a given matter is better than competing views, and that argumentation, if carried out correctly and systematically, will favour the view which has the preponderance of reasons and evidence on its side. If this supposition were dropped, the nature of social scientific inquiry would change significantly. For many commentators in the social sciences the ineliminable interpretative dimension of social inquiry and the standpoint-bound character of interpretation lead to the conclusion that we have to abandon any notion of objective truth in the social sciences. The central question raised in this thesis is whether this abandonment is inevitable or even plausible. Is it plausible to conflate objectivity and truth? Is objectivity a possible characteristic of the individual researcher or a characteristic of the scientific research process? Does the cultural environment of the researcher impact on the validity of research findings? If science is a social phenomenon, are scientific beliefs different from other beliefs? How do the interests of the individual researcher or the formal organisation of scientific practice impact on the validity of findings? What role does power play in the shaping of knowledge? These are the questions that will be addressed in the following thesis. The methodology of Max Weber serves as a point of departure and divergences and similarities to the work of Weber are explored in the writings of Kuhn, the Edinburgh School, Latour, Foucault, Habermas, as well as contemporary postmodernist and feminist writers. The analysis of these various concepts and approaches is not presented chronologically, but rather as an exposition of the contributors of various commentators in the fields of both the sociology of science and knowledge, and the philosophy of science.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Diskoers oor die menslike wêreld is, sedert Socrates, gestuktureer rondom die aanname dat een siening van 'n gegewe saak beter is as mededingende sienings, en dat argumentasie, indien korrek en sistematies uitgevoer, ten voordeel sal wees van die siening wat gesteun word deur die oormaat van redes en bewyse. As ons hierdie aanname sou laat vaar, sal die stand van sosiaal wetenskaplike ondersoek ingrypend verander. Vir menige kommentator in die sosiale wetenskappe lei die onafwendbare interpretatiewe dimensie van maatskaplike ondersoek, en die standpunt-gebonde aard van interpretasie, tot die gevolgtrekking dat ons enige opvatting van objektiwiteit in die sosiale wetenskappe moet laat vaar. Die kernvraag in hierdie tesis is of hierdie verskuiwing onvermydelik of selfs aanneemlik is. Is dit geldig om objektiwiteit en waarheid saam te snoer? Is objektiwiteit 'n moontlike eienskap van die individuele navorser, of 'n eienskap van die navorsingsproses? Watter impak het die kulturele omgewing van die navorser op die geldigheid van die navorsingsbevindinge? As wetenskap 'n sosiale fenomeen is, is wetenskaplike oortuigings enigsins anders as ander oortuigings? Watter impak het die belange van 'n individuele navorser, of die formele organsiasie van wetenskaplike praktyk, op die geldigheid van bevindings? Watter rol speel mag in die vorming en skepping van kennis? Hierdie is die vrae wat aangespreek word in dié tesis. Die metodologie van Max Weber dien as vertrekpunt, en ooreenkomste tot en afwykings van die sienings van Weber word ondersoek in die werk van Kuhn, die "Edinburgh School", Latour, Foucault, Habermas, sowel as kontemporêre postmoderne en feministiese skrywers. Die analise van hierdie verskeie konsepte en benaderings word nie kronologies aangebied nie, maar eerder as 'n uiteensetting van die bydraes van verskeie kommentators op die gebied van die sosiologie van die wetenskap en van kennis, sowel as die filosofie van wetenskap.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractThis introductory chapter outlines a mechanism-based approach as a new way of explaining social policy. The chapter first introduces causal mechanisms as a concept and explores four strands of mechanism-based research in the social sciences: the methodology of qualitative research, generative mechanisms in critical realism, analytical sociology, and historical sociology and historical institutionalism. The chapter develops a process-oriented, actor-centred and modular conception of causal mechanisms, thereby distinguishing elementary causal mechanisms and complex causal mechanisms. It then showcases the benefits of a mechanism-based approach for social policy research. The key argument is that causal mechanisms enable explanations that can complement, expand, deepen, and possibly even correct analyses that rely on established social policy approaches. The chapter concludes with an overview of all chapters of the volume.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractSocio-economic contexts and spatial effects have received increasing attention at the intersection of sociology and education. This research group has laid substantial groundwork in this emerging field of research by developing concepts and methodological techniques for analysing spatial contexts, by collecting and preparing relevant contextual data that can be linked with survey data, and by measuring the impact of socio-structural contextual characteristics on educational aspirations and chances of transition from school to vocational and academic training. For at least this specific stage in educational careers, the end of secondary schooling, we have been able to demonstrate that socio-spatial contextual settings (neighbourhoods and regional contexts) are relevant for educational inequalities. Our research has also demonstrated that the relation between socio-economic contexts and inequalities in education is complex. In particular, little is known about the temporal, spatial, and interpersonal variation in contextual effects. This chapter provides an overview of analytical concepts, measurements, and empirical findings that relate socio-spatial context conditions to educational outcomes, and it outlines promising avenues of future research.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractThis chapter describes the experiences of an American Sociology professor who taught Chinese Education students at Yunnan University, People’s Republic of China, in 2017. The author explains how she structured the teaching of two classes, Qualitative Research Methods and Writing for the Social Sciences, to show respect for the collective history and cultures of her Chinese graduate students. The chapter illustrates how curriculum (what is taught) and instruction (how it is taught) can be rethought to avoid overreliance on Western examples to the neglect of local context. The methodology used is autoethnography, which has been described as research and writing that connects the autobiographical and personal to the cultural and social. The author discusses how an understanding of Southern theory, as it has been developed by Australian sociologist Raewyn Connell, shaped her work. Connell makes a distinction between two types of theorizing. The first, Northern theory, privileges the perspectives of metropolitan society (the former imperial powers) while presenting itself as universal knowledge. The second, Southern theory, is an alternative way of thinking about the world from the viewpoints of the global periphery (the former colonized world). The chapter concludes with three concrete pedagogical tips—on experiential education, on cooperative learning and on mutual learning—for academics considering a teaching experience beyond their own national borders.

Full textAbstract:
What does it mean to be an African sex worker feminist? This chapter reflects on two qualitative studies that were conducted with African sex worker groups using the feminist participatory action research (FPAR) methodology in answering this question. It illustrates how FPAR can be used to tap into sex workers’ embodied lived experiences through body maps. It also demonstrates how the methodology offers an opportunity to critically engage with debates pertaining to sociology as a discipline. I argue that the co-production of knowledge together with sex workers using FPAR, the commitment of this form of research to social justice and scholarly goals, as well as the complex and contradictory location of the scholar activist as both insider and outsider are more consistent with the conception of ‘critical engagement’ than ‘public sociology’.

Full textAbstract:
Qualitative methodology is extensively used in a wide range of scientific areas, such as Sociology and Psychology, and it is been used to study individual and household decision making processes. However, in the Transportation Planning and Engineering domain it is still infrequent to find in the travel behavior literature studies using qualitative techniques to explore activity-travel decisions. The aim of this paper is first, to provide an overview of the types of qualitative techniques available and to explore how to correctly implement them. Secondly, to highlight the special characteristics of qualitative methods that make them appropriate to study activity-travel decision processes. Far from been an unempirical or intuitive methodology, using qualitative methods properly implies a strong foundation on theoretical frameworks, a careful design of data collection and a deep data analysis. For such a purpose, a review of the scarce activity-travel behavior literature using qualitative methods, or a combination of qualitative and quantitative approaches, is presented. The use of qualitative techniques can play a role of being a supplementary way of obtaining information related to activity-travel decisions which otherwise it would be extremely difficult to find. This work ends with some conclusions about how qualitative research could help in making progress on activity-travel behavior studies.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/CIT2016.2016.4268

The article discusses the theoretical approach and methodology of the study of ideas about the future in a transitive society. The problem of studying the image of the future belongs to the category of interdisciplinary, including research in the field of philosophy, political science, psychology, pedagogy, and sociology. The implementation of the research tasks is associated with the consideration and empirical study of the key socio-psychological factors of the perception of global, national, local risks of the modern world by adolescents and young people. The novelty of the proposed approach is associated with its interdisciplinarity, which involves the creation of a model for forming the image of the future of adolescents and young people in cognitive, emotional, and behavioral dimensions

Etymologically, the word seminar comes from the Latin semen, which means “seed”. Inspired by such linguistic archeology this text describes an exercise developed with undergraduate sociology students, who were literally invited to sow a seed and observe its growth over the course of a semester in which they must design a sociological research project. Transversally, the students perceived the exercise of germinating a plant as a metaphor for the development of the research project as a living and dynamic reality, highlighting the beginning, growth and maturation as key moments. Additionally, students emphasized that observing the germination and development of the plant allowed them to critically reflect on the different stages of the research project, while allowing their own inner development, namely with regard to the dimensions of “being”, “thinking”, “relating”, “collaborating” and “driving change”.

This paper addresses the methodology of Design Thinking and its applicability as a creative methodology when teaching and learning Sociology of Childhood in a higher education context. Students were asked to develop an exercise in order to expand and deepen the theoretical and conceptual knowledge discussed in theoretical classes. Active and creative methodologies were specifically and purposefully designed to develop the ability to think critically about the problems presented, stimulating debate and sociological imagination. Inspired by the Mindshake Design Thinking Model Evolution 6², practical classes were organized and oriented towards specific techniques, namely the “Inspiration Board”, “Intent Statement” and “Insight Clustering”, following, respectively, the phases of exploration, data collection and analysis and interpretation of results. Illustration is given through the development of a research itinerary committed to think, discuss and creatively research the meanings of the “dark” and “darkness” of the night for children. Incorporating Design Thinking in the teaching and learning process in the field of social sciences, namely when researching children and childhood from a sociological perspective, proved to be a both fruitful and engaging tool both for teachers and students.

Background: Social changes associated with martial law, created new conditions for the work of organizations of various industries and forms of ownership in Ukraine, including state and non-state social agencies. In these conditions organizations must use innovative approaches and technologies to solve the tasks, as well as constantly reflect on their own activities, look for perspective strategies for its development. Purpose: To determine strategies for the activities of social agencies in Ukraine under martial law. Methods: To achieve the goal, the methods of theoretical analysis, as well as the methodology of qualitative analysis of empirical data, were used. The semi-standardized interview method was used as the main method of data collection. Also, to analyze the strategic position of social agencies in Ukraine and develop strategic options, strategic planning methods were used, in particular, the SWOT analysis method and the TOWS matrix. Results: It is provided an overview of the results of a survey of managers and leading specialists of social agencies in Kharkiv city and some regions of Ukraine, which was conducted in November 2022 as part of the research work on the topic "Actual trends in the management of social agencies" of the Department of Sociology of Management and Social Work of the Sociology School of V.N. Karazin Kharkiv National University with the participation of students of the 4th year who are studying in the specialty Social work. Within the framework of the study, respondents were asked to answer 4 classic SWOT-analysis questions: to name the internal features of the organization that significantly contribute to its activity, as well as those that significantly hinder its activity; to name the external conditions that can significantly contribute to the development of the organization's activity, as well as those that can significantly threaten its activity. Conclusions: Based on the use of generalized information about the strategic position of organizations, which was obtained as a result of the SWOT analysis, the TOWS matrix was applied, which made it possible to generate and characterize four possible strategies for the development of social agencies in Ukraine. Two of them are focused on using existing opportunities or overcoming threats that exist in the external environment, based on their strengths. The other two strategies are aimed at getting rid of their weaknesses or reducing their impact on the organization's activities. The article also concludes that the choice of one or another strategic option is directly determined by the specifics of the internal and external environment of a particular organization and may become the subject of further research. Keywords: social agency, strategic planning, strategy, SWOT analysis, TOWS matrix.

Full textAbstract:
Due to technological advances and epidemics, online communities are rapidly growing. Online community development is concerned with the diversity of members, the complexity of networks, and their participation in activities. Many scholars have discussed this topic from the perspective of management, information science, sociology, and psychology; however, little attention has been paid to service design and how co-design can be employed. This study examines the Chinese Service Design Community (CSDC), a community that exists online in China, and employs participatory action research as a methodology. This paper describes how service design and co-design activities contribute to community development by combining the online communities' lifecycle presented by Iriberri and Leroy with the development of CSDC. In addition, it discusses the different tools used in co-design and the important role that co-design activities perform in the ‘Maturity’ stage to avoid entering the ‘Death’ stage (Iriberri & Leroy, 2009).

Full textAbstract:
The military shocks caused by the Russian-Ukrainian war became the hardest test for Ukrainian businesses and its social functions. In the first year of hostilities alone, losses of Ukrainian business-assets are estimated at $11.3 billion, which significantly limited companies’ opportunities for corporate social responsibility (CSR). The purpose of the article is to find out how the war changed the CSR model of Ukrainian businesses in the institutional and social dimension. The methodology of system analysis, sociology and institutionalism was used for the study. Primary limitations of our research are related to the objective impossibility in war conditions of obtaining actual statistical and corporate reporting data. Certain difficulties arise in finding publicly available information about relocated enterprises and companies. The key findings of our study lie in the substantiation of the connection between socially-oriented transformations in the Ukrainian CSR model under military shocks and the positive effect of these transformations on strengthening the Ukraine’s economic and societal resilience in wartime. It is advisable to take this into account in the case of developing government policy and state anti-crisis management.

Full textAbstract:
The article problematizes the possibility of replicating unique scientific and educational innovations in the institutional space of Russian society on the example of referring to the creative biography of Lyudmila Glebovna Borisova and her scientific sociological school. The methodology is based on the concept of the diversity of the transition to modernity by S. Eisenstadt; the method of researching scientific schools in the context of the relationship between the structure of science itself and the social problems of society, of which scientific institutions are a part; generational approach, biographical method and smart grid research method. The empirical base of the research is based on the documents of Lyudmila Glebovna Borisova from the Open Archive of the SB RAS: 10 office documentation, materials of personal origin, scientific publications. The key milestones in the biography of L.G. Borisova in the context of the institutional transformations of science and education of the late USSR, the development of the Novosibirsk Scientific Center (NSC); the history of the formation of sociological schools in the Novosibirsk Academgorodok is shown, the features of one of them, the school of sociology of education, are revealed. The characteristic of a special, selfless type of the Russian scientist is given. The history of the successes and failures of Lyudmila Glebovna Borisova is shown against the background of social changes in society and its institutions. In the context of the late USSR, the development of the scientific school of the sociology of education was influenced by the personality of L.G. Borisova, an ascetic scientist who underwent primary professional socialization in a pedagogical team with an ethos-oriented orientation, containing the ideas of humanism, the unity of word and deed, public service, and equality of interests between the elders and the younger. This ethos she conveyed in relationships with students and colleagues. The new stage of reforms significantly reduced the autonomy of professional communities of scientists and teachers, narrowed the base for recruiting scientific personnel in science and pedagogy, and increased the alienation of professionals from decision-making. In the changed conditions, her departure was irreparable for the scientific school.

Full textAbstract:
The term "digital stories" describes a simple creative process through which people with relatively little computer experience come to tell a personal story or collect one from the field in a 2-3 minute video. In recent years, their use in higher education has been related to meaningful technology integration for increasing student engagement and developing 21st century employability skills, integration of new and old literacies, social and collaborative learning, and constructing new understandings of contexts in the process of theorizing personal experiences. The study continues the authors’ previous research by proposing a method of embedding employability skills in the curriculum of Romanian for Academic Purposes to first year undergraduates studying sociology at Babes-Bolyai University. A research scenario is provided for a complex investigation of the ways teaching methodology can help digitally native students integrate 21st century skills with view to their transition from secondary to higher education and further, into the job market. Formative and summative assessments cover digital, media, communication, and collaboration competencies in relation to the processes and final product. A quantitative analysis is performed on data collected from project pages hosted by the e-learning platform logs (wiki) and compared with learning outcomes. Additionally, a selection of relevant case studies is described to illustrate findings and the potential of this instrument. The results are expected to bring further evidence of the benefits and challenges of new teaching practices within Web 2.0 based learning settings and of their significant role in the development of a wide array of skills needed in the academic and work environments.

The essence of technological approach to training consists in the transformation of educational processes into process with the guaranteed result. It supplements scientific approaches of pedagogy, psychology, sociology and other directions of science and practice. Purpose. To reveal how technological approaches to training in higher education institution influence on knowledge got by students. Scientific novelty. The article reveals development of the personality, creative abilities and it is necessary to use technological approaches of training, various creative tasks, research projects at the lectures. On the first and second years of education the pedagogical technology which is based on motivation of educational cognitive activity through communication and cooperation influences on the intellectual and behavioral status of students. Training is more effective, than the better methodology and technology of educational process will be coordinated with technology of assimilation the knowledge. It is important that all students in a higher educational institution could acquire material and began to use it in practice in the work. The signs of technology, a model of pedagogical technology, the scheme of technological creation of educational process and the results of expense of time in digestion of material by students are described in the article. Technological approach modernizes training on a basis of activity of students. Thanks to it, students achieve goals in the form of assimilation the knowledge in easier and productive way. When using technological approach there is an involvement of each student in educational process, knowledge is put into practice, there is always an access to necessary information (including the Internet), there is a communication and cooperation not only with the lecturer, but also with fellow students and what is more important is a constant test of the forces for overcoming the arising problems. Features of pedagogical technologies consist in activity of the lecturers and students. The activity of the lecturers is in that he knows well psychological and personal features of students and can introduce amendments on the training process course. The lecturer, as directly, and by means of technical means carries out the organizing, operating, motivating and controlling functions in the course of training. Practical significance. The practical importance consists in the use in practice of technological approaches to training in Higher Education Institution that promotes the guaranteed achievement of the set educational objects, the organization of all course of training in compliance to the purposes and tasks, assessment of the current results and their correction in case of need and also final assessment of results.
