3 ways to do sociology: scientific sociology: based on systematic observation of social behaviour on the basis of empirical evidence, interpretive sociology, critical sociology. Gender and research: androcentricity and gynocentricity: approaching the topics from a male only or female only perspective, overgeneralizing: using data collected from one sex and applying the findings to both sexes. Gender blindness: the failure to consider the impact of gender at all. Double standards: using different standards to judge males and females. Interference: a subject under study reacts to the sex of the researcher. Must strive to be technically competent and fair minded. Must disclose findings in full without omitting significant data and be willing to share their data. Must protect the safety, rights, and privacy of subjects. Must obtain informed consent; subjects are aware of risks and responsibilities and agree. Must disclose all sources of funding and avoid conflicts of interest.
