Summary

In link3, I read about scientific steps and their details. Link4 was about importance of theory, explanations and limitations of famous sociological theories.

Interesting point

Link3

I knew how quantitative method and qualitative method is different. 
However, both of them want to tell accurate and deep explanation for social phenomena.
There are 4 methods : Characterization, hypothesis, prediction and testing.
I was interested in the disparity between correlation and cause/effect relationship.
People can confuse these notions.
Correlation shows just that there is relationship between two variables.
This relationship has potential that it can be nonlogical. If variables have cause/effect relationship, it must be logical.
I thought one examination. I ate food because I was hungry : it is cause/effect relationship. However, I ate food because my friend ate food : it is correlation. And cause/effect relationship is in correlation because it has relationship.

issue. So I know it a little bit but kinds of feminism. I agree radical feminism personally. Because in past, Korean society was patriarchal society so I think its effects remained. In link, separatist feminists claim that female should be separated from male for equality. I want to know how to be separated. And it is doubtful that they can be separated completely.
