Portal · History The term Sociology is derived from the Latin socius, meaning "companion" or "associate," and the Greek lógos (?????), meaning "word," with the modern conventional meaning "the study of." Translated, this means "the study of companions or associates." Therefore, sociology by definition is the scientific study of individual behavior in society. Though sociologists study both "macro" and "micro" aspects of sociology, the two cannot be differentiated when attempting to understand human behavior in society. Sociology is a branch of the social sciences. Sociology is the examination of how individuals are influenced by groups. This is achieved using social-scientific theories and methods, which may include Qualitative and or Quantitative research techniques.
