Statistics - Sociology
Sociological Research Skills Research Methods Page 1 Name of Method Statistics Brief Outline of Method Statistics are a form of numerical data where the objective is to quantify some aspect(s) of an individual, group or society. Statistics provide a wide variety of data that would normally be inaccessible to the sociologist (due to the cost of collection, for example). We can note two main sources of statistical data: 1. Official Statistics refers to numerical data collected and published by Governments (for example, crime or marriage Statistics ). 2. Non-official Statistics refers to numerical data collected and published by a variety of public and private organisations (the Rowntree Foundation, for example, publishes Statistics on poverty).
