ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย
- 1highคะแนนที่เกี่ยวข้อง: 10Key debates, concepts and perspectives
Relying on simple juxtaposition of theoretical perspectives (e.g., writing a Marxist paragraph followed immediately by a Functionalist paragraph) without explicitly evaluating the prompt.
วิธีหลีกเลี่ยง: Directly compare theories within the same paragraph. Use evaluative connective language ('However, this functionalist view is heavily critiqued by Marxists who argue...') and end each paragraph with an analytical link back to the specific question prompt. - 2highคะแนนที่เกี่ยวข้อง: 6Methods of research
Conflating reliability (the ability to replicate research and obtain consistent findings) with validity (the extent to which research depicts true, deep, and accurate social reality).
วิธีหลีกเลี่ยง: Memorize and apply distinct definitions. Link quantitative methods (e.g., structured questionnaires) to reliability and qualitative methods (e.g., unstructured interviews) to validity, and never treat them as interchangeable synonyms. - 3highคะแนนที่เกี่ยวข้อง: 4Methods of research
Underdeveloping explanations in 6-mark (Q2b/Q3b) and 8-mark (Q2a) questions by merely stating a point rather than explaining why it serves as a strength, limitation, or counter-argument.
วิธีหลีกเลี่ยง: Structure your answers explicitly: identify the point, explain how it operates theoretically/practically, back it up with sociological material (theories/studies), and state exactly *why* or *how* this constitutes a strength or limitation. - 4mediumคะแนนที่เกี่ยวข้อง: 6Theories of the family and social change
Assuming that stepfamilies or reconstituted families represent a structurally non-nuclear family structure, when they actually function as nuclear structures.
วิธีหลีกเลี่ยง: Recognize in family diversity debates that reconstituted families structurally replicate the nuclear model (consisting of two adults and dependent co-resident children) even though they represent a change in the life cycle. - 5mediumคะแนนที่เกี่ยวข้อง: 2Socialisation and the creation of social identity
Defining key terms in Question 1 using tautologies (e.g., defining 'positive social sanctions' as 'positive ways of being social').
วิธีหลีกเลี่ยง: Provide a precise sociological definition (e.g., rewards used to encourage compliance with social norms) followed by a clear, non-tautological example (e.g., a school certificate or a promotion at work).
