subjects, and methods of inquiry in the disciplines that comprise the Social Sciences. It then
discusses influential thinkers and ideas in these disciplines, and relates these ideas to the
Philippine setting and current global trends.

(Disciplines within Social Sciences)

Anthropology is the study of humankind. Of all the disciplines that examine aspects of
human existence and accomplishments.There are now four major fields of anthropology:
biological anthropology, cultural anthropology, linguistic anthropology, and archaeology.

Cultural anthropology is the study of human culture, i.e. human beliefs, behaviors,
symbols, etc.

• Linguistic anthropology is a lot like cultural anthropology in that it studies a specific

aspect of culture: language.
• Biological (or physical) anthropology is the study of the biology and evolution of
humans and closely related primates.
• Archaeology is the study of humanly altered material culture, or artifacts.
.
METHOD OF RESEARCH • Ethnography is a core modern research method used in
Anthropology as well as in other modern social sciences. Ethnography is the case study of
one culture, subculture, or micro- culture made by the researcher immersing themselves in
said culture.

Did you know

A social science that seeks to analyze and

describe the production, distribution, and
consumption of wealth.

One of the most important aspects of science is ensuring that you get all the parts of the
written research paper in the right order.

You may have finished the best research project on earth but, if you do not write an interesting
and well laid out paper, then nobody is going to take your findings seriously.
The main thing to remember with any research paper is that it is based on an hourglass
structure. It begins with general information and undertaking a literature review, and becomes
I5 | P a g e
more specific as you nail down a research problem and hypothesis.

Finally, it again becomes more general as you try to apply your findings to the world at general.
Whilst there are a few differences between the various disciplines, with some fields placing
more emphasis on certain parts than others, there is a basic underlying structure.

These steps are the building blocks of constructing a good research paper. This section
outline how to lay out the parts of a research paper, including the various experimental
methods and designs.
The principles for literature review and essays of all types follow the same basic principles.

Reference List

The social sciences are the fields of scholarship that study society."Social science" is
commonly used as an umbrella term to refer to a plurality of fields outside of the natural
sciences.These include: anthropology, archaeology, business administration,
communication, criminology, economics, education, government, linguistics, international
relations, political science, sociology and, in some contexts, geography, history, law, and
psychology.

What is the epistemology of these terms?

Microeconomics is the branch of economics that focuses on the choices made by

individual decision- making units in the economy—typically consumers and firms.
Macroeconomics is the branch of economics that focuses on the impact of choices on the
total, or aggregate, level of economic activity.

METHOD OF RESEARCH
A. Deductive method
B. Inductive method

Guide Question

What are the Branches of Social Science?

Geography is the study of places and the relationships between people and their
environments. Geographers explore both the physical properties of Earth’s surface and the
human societies spread across it.

Physical Geography is the study of Earth’s seasons, climate, atmosphere, soil, streams,
landforms, and oceans.

I7 | P a g e
Human Geography is the study of the distribution of networks of people and cultures on
Earth’s surface.

(THE SCIENTIFIC PROCESS OF GEOGRAPHY)

• Observe a particular feature, phenomenon, or event in the world that stimulates a series
of questions and thought process.
• Implement the experiment and observe the results using unbiased data and
measurement techniques. • Propose a solution, answer, or rule that explains the
hypothesis and experiment.

History – is the discovery, collection, organization, and presentation of information about

past events. The historian A.J.P. Taylor declared that “History is not just a catalogue of
events put in the right order like a railway timetable”

The answer is that History is inescapable. It studies the past and the legacies of the past
in the present. it connects things through time and encourages its students to take a long
view of such connections.

Linguistics is the scientific study of language. In order to study language at a closer level,
scholars have broken down linguistics into various branches.
 HISTORICAL LINGUISTICS
 THEORITICAL
 APPLIED LINGUISTICS
 MICRO LINGUISTICS
 MACRO

Guide Question

What is the importance of Linguistic Approach?

LINGUISTICS
• Qualitative Approach
Qualitative approach, based on observation notes was carried out. For the quantitative
approach, a questionnaire was handed to the participants, in order to get feedback about
automatic assessment tool. Further, with the aim to evaluate if the learning outcomes of the
simulation sessions where reached, a theoretical test was imparted before and after the
sessions in order to compare the results and observed if there was any improvement.
• Quantitative Approach
Quantitative methods emphasize objective measurements and the statistical, mathematical,
or numerical analysis of data collected through polls, questionnaires, and surveys, or by
manipulating pre-existing statistical data using computational techniques.

I8 | P a g e
Political science is a social science which deals with systems of governance, and the
analysis of political activities, political thoughts, and political behavior. • It deals extensively
with the theory and practice of politics.

Comparative Politics Comparative politics compares systems of government in other

countries • International Relations International relations scholars examine the ways in
which nations interact. • Political Economy Political economy is the study of how economics
and politics affect each other. • Political Philosophy Some political scientists study the
tradition of political philosophies from Plato to the present.

 Text analysis
 Discourse analysis
 Digression analysis
 factor analysis

Psychology is the scientific study of behavior and the human mind.

A person with a condition that affects their mental health may benefit from assessment
and treatment with a psychologist or a psychiatrist. • A psychologist may offer treatment
that focuses on behavioral adaptations. • A psychiatrist is a medical doctor who is more
likely to focus on medical management of mental health issues.

A. Clinical psychology
B. Cognitive psychology
C. Developmental psychology
D. Evolutionary psychology
E. Forensic psychology
F. Health psychology
G. Neuropsychology
H. Occupational or organizational psychology
I. Social psychology

Remember

CASE STUDIES, SURVEYS, NATURALISTIC OBSERVATION, AND

LABORATORY OBSERVATION ARE EXAMPLES OF DESCRIPTIVE OR
CORRELATIONAL RESEARCH METHODS.
-Using these methods, researchers can describe different events, experiences,
or behaviors and look for links between them.

Sociology is the study of social life, social change, and the social causes and consequences
of human behavior. Sociologists investigate the structure of groups, organizations, and

I9 | P a g e
societies, and how people interact within these contexts. Since all human behavior is social,
the subject matter of sociology ranges from the intimate family to the hostile mob; from
organized crime to religious cults; from the divisions of race, gender and social class to the
shared beliefs of a common culture; and from the sociology of work to the sociology of sports.
In fact, few fields have such broad scope and relevance for research, theory, and application of
knowledge.

Guide Question

What are the Types of Sociology?

TYPES OF SOCIOLOGY
A. Applied sociology

Applied sociology is the use of sociological theory, methods, skills and research in
order to resolve particular issues in real-world settings.

B. Comparative sociology
Comparative sociology involves comparison of the social processes between nation
states, or across different types of society (for example capitalist and socialist).

C. Cultural sociology
The sociology of culture, and the related cultural sociology, concerns the systematic
analysis of culture, usually understood as the ensemble of symbolic codes used by a
member of a society, as it is manifested in the society.

D. Industrial sociology
Industrial Sociology is the study of the motivations and behaviors of people at the
workplace. Many descriptions in this field tend to be nearly anthropological in
presentation, as if an outside observer from Mars visited and objectively observed the
workings in an office or assembly line.

E. Medical sociology
Medical sociology is the sociological analysis of medical organizations and
institutions; the production of knowledge and selection of methods, the actions and
I10 | P a g e
 interactions of healthcare professionals, and the social or cultural (rather than clinical
or bodily) effects of medical practice.

F. Military sociology
Military sociology is a subfield within sociology. It corresponds closely to C. Wright
Mills's summons to connect the individual world to broader social structures. Military
sociology aims toward the systematic study of the military as a social group rather than
as a military organization.

G. Political sociology
Political sociology is concerned with the sociological analysis of political phenomena
ranging from the State and civil society to the family, investigating topics such as
citizenship, social movements, and the sources of social power.

H. Sociology of Religion
Sociology of religion this objective investigation may include the use of both
quantitative methods (surveys, polls, demographic and census analysis) and qualitative
approaches such as participant observation, interviewing, and analysis of archival,
historical and documentary materials.

I. Urban sociology
Urban sociology is the sociological study of life and human interaction in metropolitan
areas. It is a normative discipline of sociology seeking to study the structures,
environmental processes, changes and problems of an urban area and by doing so
provide inputs for urban planning and policy making.

J. Rural sociology
Rural sociology came into its own during the post-World War II era when it rejected
rural romanticism and transcended New Deal reformism by embracing the
technological-modernizations assumptions.

K. Sociology of Education
The sociology of education is the study of how public institutions and individual
experiences affect education and its outcomes. it includes the expansion of higher,
further, adult, and continuing education.

METHODS OF DATA COLLECTION is done by the individual by using the methods such
as:
A. Observation
B. Interviews
C. Questionnaires

ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION OF DATA

The data collected directed from individuals by face to face survey. Some data are being
I11 | P a g e
 collected during census and national surveys

Activity #1
Instruction: Read the research about Areca nut also known as betel nut, then arrange the
parts of this research through the use of the chart below.

I. Areca nut is a common substance in Southeast Asia and the Asia Pacific region that is also
used in migrant communities originating from these regions. The psychoactive effects of areca
nut use and its potential for dependence have been reviewed in previous literature. Betel quid
is a common preparation made from areca nut. The custom of chewing betel quid has existed
for thousands of years since antiquity in Taiwan and Southern China. Moreover, areca nut has
been widely used as a medicinal substance to treat diseases or ward off pestilence in
traditional Chinese culture. However, modern studies have shown that there is a strong
relationship between areca nut/betel quid chewing and oral cancer. Today, the chewing of
betel quid is still prevalent among male Taiwanese and some aboriginal cultures under the
influence of their social and cultural contexts.
II. Purposive sampling was adopted in this study and 30 participants were included. The
criteria for inclusion of participants were oral cancer patients who have a history of habitual
betel quid chewing, and who were capable of conducting a coherent conversation. The
participants were recruited from the Cancer Center of Kaohsiung Medical University Hospital,
which is located in southern Taiwan. A list of potential participants was provided by the
attending doctors, and eligible patients were invited to participate in this study with informed
consent. Participants received a gift card worth NT$500 as incentive for participation. The
research protocol for this study was approved by the Human Experiment and Ethics
Committee of the Chung-Ho Memorial Hospital, Kaohsiung Medical University.
III. The psychoactive effects of using areca nut and its potential for dependence have been
observed. However, the factors that create barriers to or promote chewing cessation are not
well understood. This study aims to explore the behavioral changes of betel quid chewers who
have been diagnosed with oral cancer within a trans theoretical model framework. Thirty oral
cancer patients with betel quid chewing history were chosen for in-depth interviews. Qualitative
content analysis was used to analyze the data and identify themes that described the
behavioral changes of betel quid cessation. Our research showed that betel quid chewers with
oral cancer typically experience four significant stages of behavior: pre-contemplation,
contemplation, action, and maintenance. Each stage change was marked by specific
characteristics. At first, chewers showed positive attitudes toward the psychoactive or social
effects of betel quid. They then realized the negative effects of betel quid, such as dental or
other physical problems. Some also realized that they were addicted to betel quid. When they
decided to quit, most chewers reported going “cold turkey.” Some chewers successfully quit
betel quid and attributed it to willpower. Those quitting because of the loss of oral functions
were unable to chew anymore, though some chewers had experienced a relapse. In the
I12 | P a g e
maintenance stage, ex-chewers reported overcoming their addiction; however, relapse was
possible. In this study, those who quit betel quid because of oral cancer usually quit tobacco
and alcohol as well, with a lesser chance of recurrence. As the maintenance of chewing betel
quid is multifactorial, this study provides information for betel quid cessation and oral cancer
prevention.
IV. Since the Cancer Control Act was promulgated and implemented in 2003, the Taiwan
government has actively promoted cancer prevention. Prevention of oral cancer has been
regarded as a major policy priority given its high prevalence due to betel quid chewing. Over
the years, prevention has included oral mucosal screening in communities or hospitals, health
education in communities or schools, health communication through the media, and a
cessation program provided by public health nurses or hospital nurses. However, the factors
that create barriers to or promote chewing cessation are not well understood.
V. The trans theoretical model (TTM) is a theory applicable to the development of betel quid
chewing cessation programs, as it is commonly used to explore addictive behaviors. This study
aims to explore within a TTM framework the behavioral changes of betel quid chewers who
have been diagnosed with oral cancer. The main research questions are: (1) Can TTM be
applied to describe changes in the behavior of oral cancer patients during the course of betel
quid use? (2) What are the characteristics of oral cancer patients’ betel quid use behavior at
various stages in the course of change? (3) Is an oral lesion process associated with betel quid
addiction found in the qualitative data?
VI. Purposive sampling was adopted in this study and 30 participants were included. The
criteria for inclusion of participants were oral cancer patients who have a history of habitual
betel quid chewing, and who were capable of conducting a coherent conversation. The
participants were recruited from the Cancer Center of Kaohsiung Medical University Hospital,
which is located in southern Taiwan. A list of potential participants was provided by the
attending doctors, and eligible patients were invited to participate in this study with informed
consent. Participants received a gift card worth NT$500 as incentive for participation. The
research protocol for this study was approved by the Human Experiment and Ethics
Committee of the Chung-Ho Memorial Hospital, Kaohsiung Medical University.
VII. The interview guide included the following concepts, in order: (1) initiation of the use of
betel quid; (2) the situations that facilitated continued chewing after first trying betel quid; (3)
the changes in betel quid usage; (4) the effects of long-term chewing; (5) previous experiences
with quitting betel quid; (6) the circumstances around quitting betel quid and the maintenance
of cessation; (7) situations in which relapse occurred.

VIII. The data were collected through individual semi-structured in-depth interviews. After
providing informed consent, participants completed the Betel Quid Dependence Scale (BQDS),
which is used to estimate the severity of addiction in betel quid chewers. The interviews were
conducted by a well-trained interviewer (TYC) who is very familiar with Southern Hokkien, a
dialect widely used in Taiwan, especially among laborers. To facilitate the comfort of the
interviewees, the interviews were conducted in a separate room that ensured the privacy of the
participants. Interviews lasted between 20 and 60 minutes and were digitally recorded,
transcribed, and checked for accuracy. All participants agreed to audio and video recording.
