We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Sociological Research Methods- Qualitative and quantitative
1. Presented by,
Sameena M.S
UGC Junior Research Fellow,
Dept. of Sociology
Sree Sankaracharya University of Sanskrit,
Kalady, Kerala, India
2. Research- “systematic investigation into and study of
materials and sources to establish facts and reach valid
conclusions”
This systematic investigation progresses through a method
or logic of enquiry
3. Method that has been adopted
Competency of method
In what way it has contributed to theoretical
understanding
Therefore, success of any research is greatly
influenced by the methods adopted
4. Methods- “tools of data generation and analysis”
Chosen on the basis of criteria dictated by the
major elements of the methodology in which they
are embedded
Methodology- “the science of methods”
Contains standards and principles employed to
guide the choice, structure, process and use of
methods as directed by the underlying paradigm
5. “Methods refer to particular procedures and tools
of research (e.g. interview) whilst methodology is
about theory of how research is carried out or the
broad principles of how to conduct research and
how theory is applied (e.g. Survey research
methodology or experimental methodology)”
-Harding
6. 1830s- modern social science began
Applied scientific method to study human thought and
behaviour
By 1930s- social sciences divided
Formed separate departments in Universities
Divisions on the basis of research methods
Later there was a shift away from seeing scientific
method (quantitative) as the only valid way of gaining
data – but also a realization that both methods are
needed
7. “consist of the process of seeking answers to questions about
the social world”
To answer these questions, social scientists employ wide range
of methods
Quantitative
Social research methods
Qualitative
8. “The term quantitative method refers in large part to the adoption
of natural science experiment as the model for scientific
research , its key features being quantitative measurement of the
phenomena studied and systematic control of the theoretical
variables influencing those phenomena”
-Hammersely
9. Positivistic
Collect data using standardized approaches on
a range of variables
Test given theory by confirming or denying
precise hypothesis
Conceptualizes reality in terms of variables and
relationships between them
10. It rests on measurement
Prestructures data, research questions,
conceptual framework, design etc.
Larger sample and generalization through
sample
Well developed n codified methods for data
analysis
Common quantitative methods- surveys and
experiments
11. most commonly used
Based on using statistical sampling methods
Takes representative sample from a given
population, apply standardized and structured
instrument
Enables descriptive and explanatory
generalization.
12. Used to study the causal relationships between
variables
Studying the effect of an independent variable on
a dependent variable by keeping the other
independent variable constant through some type
of control
13. Produces data which is clear, powerful and easily verifiable
Conclusions reached are scientific, objective, reliable and
valid
Generalization possible
Clear data analysis strategy
Easily replicable
14. Do not pay attention to social meanings
No place for participants
Very artificial
Closed method, strictly planned
Instrument chosen before the study begins and no
option for correction or adjustment
Can’t be so precise, people change
Social situation is too complex for numerical
description
15. “Methods that are associated with a variety of theoretical
perspectives and uses a range of tools which focus on the
meanings and interpretation of social phenomena & social
processes in the particular contexts in which they occur”
-SAGE Dictionary of Social Research Methods
16. “Interpretative”, Tries to explore subjective
meaning through which people interpret the world
Deals with cases and researcher gets closer to
what is being studied
Aims at in-depth holistic understanding
Less formalized methods
Greater flexibility
Sampling- theoretical not probabilistic
17. Open ended to explore interpretations
Allow collection of detailed information
Commonly used qualitative methods-
interviewing, ethnography, observations, focus
groups, case studies and content analysis
18. “a two way systematic conversation between an
investigator and an informant, initiated for obtaining
information relevant to particular study”
Involves conversation, learning from respondent’s
gestures, facial expressions and pauses and his
environment
19. A method of enquiry through observation of institutions,
cultures and customs
Helps the researcher to understand systematically about
the world people see and to develop theories about the
social world, irrespective of his preconception
20. “systematic viewing of a specific phenomenon in
its proper setting, for the specific purpose of
gathering data for a particular study”
Includes seeing, hearing and perceiving
21. Held with a group of participants to stimulate
discussion among people and bring to the surface
responses that otherwise might lay dormant.
22. “an in-depth comprehensive study of a person, a social
group, an episode, a process, a situation, a programme, a
community, an institution or any other social unit”
Most common qualitative method
23. A method for making inference by objectively and
systematically identifying specified characteristics of
contents of documents
Gathers data from archival records, documents,
newspapers, diaries, letters etc.
24. Presenting a more realistic view of the world
Stressing interpretations and meanings
Achieving a deeper understanding of the
respondent’s world
Humanizing research process by raising the role
of the researched
Researching people in natural settings
Allowing higher flexibility
25. Problem of reliability caused by extreme
subjectivity
Risk of collecting meaningless & useless
information
Very time consuming
Problem of representativeness & generalisability of
findings
Problem of objectivity & detachment
Problem of ethics (entering the personal sphere of
subjects)
26. “there’s no such thing as qualitative data. Everything is
either 1 or 0”
-Fred Kerlinger
“all research ultimately has a qualitative grounding”
-D.T Campbell
27. Comparison
dimension
Qualitative method Quantitative method
Objective To understand
underlying reasons
Quantify data &
generalize results
perspective interpretative positivistic
sample Small no, non-
representative cases
Large no,
representing the
population
Type of research exploratory descriptive
Data collection Unstructured/semi
structured
structured
administration Requires interviewer
with special skills
Fewer special skills
required
analysis Subjective, Statistical,
28. Ability to replicate Low high
Hardware Tape recorders,
projection
devices, videos..
Questionnaires,
computers, printouts..
Data Involves words Involves numbers
Role of the
researcher
Objective
observer
Subjectively immersed
in the subject matter
generalization inductive Deductive, time and
context specific
Flexibility of design Flexible, can be
changed
Not flexible,
Standardized and
fixed design
theory Builds theory Tests theory
29. Combing qualitative and quantitative methods
To capitalize strengths, to compensate
weaknesses
30. Success of any research is greatly influenced by
the method adopted
Qualitative and quantitative methods present only
a choice of alternative methods according to the
appropriateness of research problem
Sound mix of both is always advisable
“whether we use words or number, we might as
well use them right”
