Research project step 3 Examine this issue from the three sociological perspectives. Write down what questions, from these perspectives, might be important to your topic. This should be one to two pages. Begin by explaining the perspective in your own words. Then determine what questions this perspective might want to ask about your issue. Provide at least two questions. a. A structural functionalist might ask “In what ways does your issue relate to social stability and power?” b. A conflict perspective might ask “In what ways does your issue relate to power, status and access to resources?” c. A symbolic interactionist might ask “In what ways is your issue a product of interpretations and negotiations of meaning?” d. Write about which of these perspectives give you the best insight into your public issue. I want to examine the negative side-effects of TikTok through the symbolic interactionalist perspective, the functionalist perspective, and the symbolic perspective. The symbolic interactionalist perspective is basically where people interpret their social lives through their social interactions and communication. Functionalist perspective looks at society in a bigger perspective and studies what components create a society and what keeps the society stable. The symbolic perspective examines how society is maintained through interactions among people. In what way would a structural functionalist view the issues pertaining to TikTok? They may ask “In what way does your issue relate to power, status and access to resources?”
