Extra work ! Is it possible to use scientific approach effectively in a subject that deals with human being?

Really difficult question for me, coz i don do economic and socialogy :) but i still have to try !!

Economics is the study of man and his activities in relation to his environment. The study of ends and scarce means which studies alternative uses.

Fom the little i know, economics is a social science because it studies human environment, there is no specific(physical) laboratory. if we want to test anything concerning with economics, then we survey and taking primary and secondary research and analyse the things and it is carried out on the society. thus, society is the laboratory for any test of the subjects concerning with economics.

Most subjects in the sciences have a constant and specific way of carrying out their activities. For instance, to test the pH level of a matter requires a particular method, unlike in economics where the issue of unemployment solved in China differs from the way it will be addressed in the UK. Economics deals with the study of the environment in different ways. Therefor, i think it is possible to use scientific approach effectivelyin a subject that deals with human beings, but it must be a tough.

If your not taking economics, I would say this is good. At least is better than what I came up with...
"the society is the laboratory for any test of the subjects concerning with economics." is properly right. But I didnt get the thing you wrote before that, so here comes the question: what is a primary and secondary research?

Ok, Fanny, Primary research is the collection of information first-hand for a specific perpose. So the secondary data means to find the information by using the second-hand data, usually from the examing published documents like newspaper.

Hi Nara!

I think you did a good job! I think that it is possible to use a scientific approach effectively in a subject that deals with human being. Simply because scientist often search for a very rational solution to every problem they meet. However, I also think that when it comes to humans, emotions are playing a role as well! So maybe it might not be that effective after all? Mwah I am tired! See you at registration Nara!

Thx for your comment Tom, emotions are inscrutable, so the scientific approach in a subject that deals with human being might not be accurate. I have the same opinion as yours. :)
