TL;DR: This paper argued that race relations situations can be distinguished from other kinds of social situations and that the field of race relations study can therefore be defined by its subject matter, and that it is more illuminating to see this field?like others?as defined by a tradition of inquiry, for this enables us to take account not only of what is studied but of who does the studying and the context within which they work.
Abstract: Recent years have seen a revival of interest in the question whether race relations are ultimately reducible to class relations.1 Some writers have maintained that race relations situations can be distinguished from other kinds of social situations and that the field of race relations study can therefore be defined by its subject matter.2 In my view it is more illuminating to see this field?like others?as defined by a tradition of inquiry, for this enables us to take account not only of what is studied but of who does the studying and the context within which they work. As in any academic field, the problems which have interested race relations scholars have changed from generation to generation; so have their theories, and the boundaries of their field.
TL;DR: In this article, it is suggested that a functional recipe for extrinsic criteria for scientific choice should require a field to have conceptual or pragmatic influence on some other field of science, integrated over all future times.
TL;DR: The field of white-collar crime has a great deal more than academic significance as discussed by the authors, and researchers who develop knowledge about the field and those who use the knowledge to carry out policy both are constrained by the way the field characterizes the social problems they encounter.
Abstract: field of inquiry is created in the social sciences, the definition has a great deal more than academic significance. Researchers who develop knowledge about the field and those who use the knowledge to carry out policy both are constrained by the way the field characterizes the social problems they encounter. The field of white-collar crime exemplifies this constraint. When Sutherland defined white-collar criminality, he explicitly observed that acceptance of his definition would imply recognition of a set of social problems to be resolved through the application of research stated in a new set of terms. He wrote:
TL;DR: This paper found that mere exposure can enhance attitudes under more naturalistic conditions than are in the laboratory; however, several major questions remain regarding the ecological validity of the exposure research to date and the effects (if any) of exposure on behavior in natural settings.
Abstract: a period of 25 days. The frequency of exposure of the Turkish words was varied. Subjects contacted through undergraduate classes and mail questionnaires, increased their rating of the goodness of the Turkish words as the frequency of the exposure of the word in the newspapers increased. This study provides evidence that mere exposure can enhance attitudes under more naturalistic conditions than are in the laboratory; however, several major questions remain regarding the ecological validity of the exposure research to date and the effects (if any) of exposure on behavior in natural settings. (1) Can the results be replicated in curcumstances that are more socially meaningful? In order to study the phenomenon of mere exposure precisely (independent of the effects of content), the stimuli in most exposure studies have been neutral and/or meaningless, and the social meaning and context of the stimuli were sterile. (2) Are the exposure literature findings valid under conditions involving nonreactive and unobtrusive measures? (3) Are the effects of exposure
