Isi artikel

The authors (Jerolmack and Khan [J&K]) argue that sociologists who use surveys and interviews to understand behavior ignore the situated nature of action, fail to theorize surveys or interviews as situations, and consequently draw incorrect conclusions from their data. Surveys, they argue, are good at ensuring the representativeness of individuals, but terrible at sampling variation in situations. In making a trenchant case for the situated nature of both behavior and the expression of cultural dispositions, and explicating the relevant virtues of ethnography, J&K constructively revive a conversation that sociologists neglect at great risk.
