The Pros And Cons Of Interview As An Interview

1687 Words7 Pages

1. From my interview experience I believe there are multiple pros and cons of using them as a research tool. One of the main pros is the easy transparency and clarification of the data collected from interviews, rather than simply looking at research articles, etc. I was face to face gathering my information, therefore if I needed anything clarified, or described more in depth it was easy to get that for my research. I can also adjust my questions for easy understanding depending on who I’m interviewing which I would not be able to do if I only used something like a questionnaire. One con that did not affect me but came to mind is if I were to be interviewing multiple individuals it could be time consuming trying to arrange interviews around everyone’s schedule. My interview was slightly time consuming, therefore another con I noticed is that when using an interview as a research tool, my candidates could get tired and put less thought into their responses towards the end of the interview.
2. For my interview, I interviewed my mom. I think this influenced my questions in the sense that I felt that I could ask more questions without the concern for digging too deep or offending someone. I …show more content…

  • The Social Imagination: A Sociological Analysis

    632 Words  | 3 Pages

    When a woman chooses to keep her baby, it may not be her decision; it may be her moral duty to the society influenced by her family’s pressure and religious belief. However, if she considers the broad social factors that will shape and influence her views, and that will allow her to make individual choices such as whether to keep her baby or not, she is applying what C. Wright Mills’ called the Social Imagination. James Henslin (2013) stated that C. Wright Mills’s sociological imagination gives us the ability “to understand how our personal troubles (the problems we experience) are connected to the broader conditions of our society” (p. 2). It allows us to question the “norms” and gives us the ability to see things from different perspectives

    The three descriptive research methods that I will discuss are Naturalistic Observation, Survey, and Case Study. Naturalistic Observation is a research method in which people or animals are observed in their natural habitat without any controls or variables. This type of research method may be conducted if you want to see how people truly act without being watched. For example, this research method may be used to determine who are healthier shoppers, men or women? The researcher would go to a food store and take count throughout the day of how many men and women he finds in the fruit and vegetable isles, and how many he find in the snack isles.
