Discussion Post Help
The social imagination is defined as the vivid awareness of the relationship between experience and the wider society; the ability to see things socially and how they interact and influence each other. To have a sociological imagination, a person must be able to pull away from the situation and think from an alternative point of view (Crossman, 2015, para. 8).
Important Note: This Discussion must be completed by Day 5 of the first week of the course, or you risk being dropped from the course. This includes both your initial post and response post.

Sampling Structures
Probability and nonprobability are the two general categories of sampling. Probability sampling uses random selection, whereas nonprobability sampling does not. For example, if you wanted to study the effects of divorce on the psychological development of adolescents, you could gather a population of a certain number of adolescents whose parents were divorced. Then, out of that population, you could randomly select 25 of those people. If you wanted to use nonprobability sampling, you would choose specific people who had met predetermined criteria. For this Discussion, consider how samples would be chosen for both probability and nonprobability sampling structures.
Post your explanation of the following:
- Using your research problem and the refined question you developed in Week 4, develop two sampling structures: probability and nonprobability.
- Explain who would be included in each sample and how each sample

Sociological Investigation
Sociological Investigation
The outcomes of Sociological research are literally around us every day. When we see an article telling us that more men are helping with housework in 2015 than in 1960 or that employers would rather hire a White man with a criminal record before they hire a more qualified Black man without one (both are real and recent studies) we are reading sociological research. To get you used to identify and thinking critically about these studies. Find current news of reports on a sociological study. It can be on any topic. Post it along with your response and, using the concepts in the chapter, identify:
1. The dependant and in dependant variables in the study
2. Questions you might have about the reliability or validity of the study.
3. What alternative reasons could you think of for the outcome of this study? (AKA Spurious Correlation)
Here is an example of an article you might use, this one gets pretty detailed, and
