Background Summary:
Poverty, disease, and hunger remain among the most persistent and devastating challenges facing humanity. Despite significant advancements in science, technology, and medicine, these issues continue to affect billions worldwide, hindering progress and well-being for millions. What if science could be harnessed not just to mitigate these issues but to eradicate them entirely?
Recent breakthroughs in various fields—such as biotechnology, renewable energy, artificial intelligence, and social sciences—offer unprecedented opportunities to tackle the root causes of poverty, hunger, and disease in innovative ways. Can we leverage these advancements to design systems of resource distribution, healthcare, and education that are sustainable and equitable for all? Can biotechnology revolutionize food production and health solutions, while AI and data analytics create efficient, scalable models for poverty reduction?

Can anyone suggest me some SSCI journals in Politics or International Relations or wider that are relatively easy and fast to publish?
I searched on the Beall's list and it does not appear, however, my concern is its association with Index Copernicus International. How will publishing with them affect my academic profile?
Background: Social sciences.
If I have an assignment to write an article of social sciences, then how many words should I use to write it?
Background Summary:
In the pursuit of human progress, science has undeniably transformed the material aspects of life—advancing our health, wealth, and technology. Yet, there remains an uncharted territory: how can science be leveraged not just for physical abundance but to elevate the very essence of human existence, fostering prosperity, happiness, health, and even spiritual fulfillment? Can we scientifically engineer a model of living where every individual experiences bliss, vitality, and peace, while also nurturing the collective well-being of society?
The concept of "blissful living" is deeply rooted in ancient wisdom, yet modern scientific advancements in neuroscience, quantum physics, psychology, and social behavior offer unprecedented opportunities to explore this ideal. How do the principles of neuroscience—shaping our understanding of the brain and emotions—align with quantum physics' potential to transcend the limitations of material reality? How can social sciences bridge the gap between individual flourishing and collective harmony?
This vision calls for an integrative approach that combines the best of both the material and spiritual dimensions, enabling us to understand and cultivate abundance, health, wealth, and happiness not as separate pursuits, but as interconnected aspects of a higher state of existence. A holistic, scientifically grounded pathway to blissful living could revolutionise how we approach human well-being on a global scale, offering a framework for not just surviving, but thriving in a way that fosters a deeper connection to self, others, and the divine.
I need a textbook that I can use and recommend to postgraduate students in the Social Sciences fields.
Thank you in advance for your recommendations.
I am looking into conducting some qualitative fieldwork as part of my research, which is something new to me. As such, I wanted to ask the ResearchGate community what they perceive or have experienced to be the strengths and weaknesses of different qualitative approaches for research in the Social Sciences. Approaches or methods I'm considering include focus groups, semi-structured interviews, and ethnographic approaches, but I'd also be happy to hear about approaches beyond these three.
Thanks in advance!
Kindly suggest various methods (their specific use, significance, related data analysis, and new tool) for attitude scale construction in communication, social science, agricultural social science, education, management, etc.
The context of social science and Business Management.
Does the use of theory or theories mandatory in social science research including economics and business administration areas?
International Conference on Educational Technology, Learning and Social Science (ICETLSS - 2025) will be held in Los Angeles,USA during 20th-21st July 2025. The Conference will be organized by SciencePlus Global Research Forum.

The Diffusion of Innovation (DOI) Theory, developed by Everett M. Rogers in 1962, is a foundational concept in social science that explains how new ideas, products, or behaviors spread through a population or social system over time. Several key elements:
1. Innovation
2. Adopters
3. Communication Channels
4. Time
5. Social System

I'm a student of Applied Linguistics, new to the field but well-versed in conducting research within social sciences and economics. I’m seeking guidance on applying Computational Linguistics to address global issues. Thank you!
I need some articles in social science.
Hi,
I've just started my Ph.D. and I'm in the process of writing a review article. Given the novelty of the findings, there's an ongoing debate on the existence of the phenomenon that underlies my project (Gender-Equality Paradox) on which I'd like to focus the paper. That said, I was thinking to write a review that looks into the relevant literature to summarise what is known on the topic and shows the necessity for further investigations. However, I'm struggling with finding the right methodology approach to use. Systematic and Integrative approach don't seem to be relevant in exploring a phenomenon but I might be wrong. I was thinking to apply a historical approach to highlight the increase in evidence overtime but I'm not sure. Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance to everyone who will participate in the discussion.
Dear ReserchGate
Can you please add Journal of Social Science Education [JSSE] among the journals possible to enter when you add new research! JSSE (ISSN: 1618-5293) is an important journal in the field of social science education.
Kind regards

The Likert scale is a commonly used measurement tool in social science research to assess people's attitudes, opinions, or perceptions. The social science students still have difficulty selecting the appropriate Likert Scale for their academic study. Please suggest the best articles for the Master's and PhD level scholars in social sciences.
The similarity analysis feature in discourses, is an analytical tool of the IRAMUTEQ software. As a result, a tree diagram is generated which can be configured as a Venn diagram. However, the groups of words by similarity starting from a dominant word to the child words, using the co-occurrence principle. In discourse analysis, the semantic domains are checked and the derived words follow the same principle. In this case, in what aspects does IRAMUTEQ's similarity analysis differ from semantic domains in discourse analysis?
I am looking for coauthors interseted in the field of social sciences mainly globalisation and cultural heritage .
if you are interested please contact me
Which method is more accurate and popular for testing the validity and reliability of my scales?
Dear researchers,
I am working in the field of social science, specifically sustainability. I am looking for a research project collaborator from Japan for an upcoming research project proposal. Broadly, identified research areas for collaborative research projects are: circular economy, cultural heritage, religious and spiritual tourism, MSMEs, and value-based primary education. The new areas can also be explored based on the common research interests of researchers from both countries.

Hello all,
I am running into a problem I have not encountered before with my mediation analyses. I am running a simple mediation X > M > Y in R.
Generally, I concur that the total effect does not have to be significant for there to be a mediation effect, and in the case I am describing, this would be a logical occurence, since the effects of path a and b are both significant and respectively are -.142 and .140, thus resulting in a 'null-effect' for the total effect.
However, my 'c path X > Y is not 'non-significant' as I would expect, rather, the regression does not fit (see below) :
(Residual standard error: 0.281 on 196 degrees of freedom
Multiple R-squared: 0.005521, Adjusted R-squared: 0.0004468
F-statistic: 1.088 on 1 and 196 DF, p-value: 0.2982).
Usually I would say you cannot interpret models that do not fit, and since this path is part of my model, I hesitate to interpret the mediation at all. However, the other paths do fit and are significant. Could the non-fitting also be a result of the paths cancelling one another?
Note: I am running bootstrapped results for the indirect effects, but the code does utilize the 'total effect' path, which does not fit on its own, therefore I am concerned.
Note 2: I am working with a clinical sample, therefore the samplesize is not as great as I'd like group 1: 119; group2: 79 (N = 198).
Please let me know if additional information is needed and thank you in advance!

Hello,
I am a student from Vytautas Magnus University. I am currently writing my bachelor's thesis on decision-making styles and divergent thinking. I read your article about adapting its decision-making to another language. I wanted to ask, maybe you know which order the questions of the questionnaire are supposed to be in and could tell it to me?
Thanks for Your response in advance.

Do you know any theory that talks about making consumers perceive products as friends through product messages or advertising messages?
Depending on different journal articles and some with method with clear designs and some without method section and still called as journal articles ( can be derived a lot from reputed publisher), this makes me perplexed with what the scientific articles or journal in social science ( not natural science). Professors , scholars and researchers help to clarify , thanks!
I'm currently writing a paper which I feel might be suited to become a conceptual paper. Am currently reading the attached article for a better idea, but I would really appreciate any examples of conceptual papers that have been published, preferably in social sciences or humanities.
Thank you!
Edit:
Additional reference:
The journal belongs to the Open Access Publishing Group which is categorized as predatory publishing under Beall's list but after checking the journal, it is not included. Since it is published under predatory publishing, should the journal be considered predatory?

When I point unpleasant things out, people often respond by insulting me. So, under complete eugenics I would either have been killed and or castrated at this point.
If Nazis do gain control over the USA, I may be killed first because they really hate white looking people with disabilities and or subtle non white ancestry.
The more North Western European liberal nations become multiracial democracies, the more a select few elite North Western Europeans turn into the leadership base. Hence why so many politicians and other elites are North Western Europeans. Thus, the "Great Replacement" should really be named the "Great Filter" because it consolidates whiteness(state of being North Western European). North Western European liberals did not just coincidentally invent transhumanism and eugenics.

Hello everyone,
I am currently undertaking a research project that aims to assess the effectiveness of an intervention program. However, I am encountering difficulties in locating suitable resources for my study.
Specifically, I am in search of papers and tutorials on multivariate multigroup latent change modelling. My research involves evaluating the impact of the intervention program in the absence of a control group, while also investigating the influence of pre-test scores on subsequent changes. Additionally, I am keen to explore how the scores differ across various demographic groups, such as age, gender, and knowledge level (all measured as categorical variables).
Although I have come across several resources on univariate/bivariate latent change modelling with more than three time points, I have been unable to find papers that specifically address my requirements—namely, studies focusing on two time points, multiple latent variables (n >= 3), and multiple indicators for each latent variable (n >= 2).
I would greatly appreciate your assistance and guidance in recommending any relevant papers, tutorials, or alternative resources that pertain to my research objectives.
Best,
V. P.

Hi,
I want to study sustainability in firms, particularly at MESO level. I want to explain these levels from a social science perspective. Which one do you propose?
Micro is within the firm and their direct consumers.
Meso is when firms apply business models and collaborate and value co-created.
Macro is a collection of Meso's at a larger scale region, national etc.
What social science theory I can use to explain these levels and the interaction between them?
Thank you.
How can interdisciplinary collaboration between researchers in computer science, engineering, and social sciences contribute to advancing IoT research?
Se trata de establecer los alcances y limites de la investigación en las ciencias sociales, así como la diferencia en métodos con las ciencias naturales para generar hallazgos y producir conocimiento.
I feel this question goes much deeper into social science than may at first appear. I hope for some thoughtful answers.

Hi All
Looking to create an umbrella review protocol and eventual umbrella review for a project I am working on but I cannot seem to find reporting guidelines for same. I was hoping there was something like PRISMA but for umbrella reviews and umbrella review protocols?
Additionally, what journals accept umbrella review protocols that are not hidden behind a pay wall that is open access fees. My field of expertise is in the health/social science space.

How can we ensure that current STEM pedagogy will prepare children for their future in an ever changing technological world?
Does current 'teacher training' provide aspiring teachers with the adequate skills necessary for successful STEM pedagogy?
Please share your knowledge or give your opinions or share any matterial with you regarding the same.
Thank you all for your support in advance.
Academics in social sciences; what would you think about waiting more than 8 months after the acceptance of your manuscript in a well-known SSCI-indexed journal published by the Taylor & Francis Group?
The answer from the journal addresses the reason due to "a large backlog of manuscripts" in the system. Then, why not consider publishing an announcement beforehand on the website about this issue?
How can we talk about progress in science if we proceed at this pace?

Hello,
We need some debate about the role of statistics in scientific confirmation.

Suppose one has 40 or 50 survey questions for an exploratory analysis of a phenomenon, several of which are intended to be dependent variables, but most independent. A MLR is conducted with e.g. 15 IVs to explain the DV, and maybe half turn out to be significant. Now suppose an interesting IV warrants further investigation, and you think you have collected enough data to at least partially explain what makes this IV so important to the primary DV. Perhaps another, secondary model is in order... i.e. you'd like to turn a significant IV from the primary model into the DV in a new model.
Is there a name for this regression or model approach? It is not exactly nested, hierarchical, or multilevel (I think). The idea, again, is simply to explore what variables explain the presence of IV.a in Model 1, by building Model 2 with IV.a as the DV, and employing additional IVs that were not included in Model 1 to explain this new DV.
I am imagining this as a sort of post-hoc follow up to Model 1, which might sound silly, but this is an exploratory social science study, so some flexibility is warranted, imo.
My answer: we realize that humans are too complex to model and predict the behavior of, precisely. But the modeling of human behavior still should not be abandoned but realized as heuristic building. Maybe social sciences should be renamed Survival HEURISTIC design.
Interdisciplinary research involves collaboration between researchers from different fields to solve complex problems that cannot be tackled within the confines of a single discipline. It seeks to combine knowledge, methods, and tools from different fields to create new solutions that are not possible within one field alone.
Interdisciplinary research can involve natural sciences, social sciences, and humanities, as well as other areas such as engineering, computer science, and economics.
When doing discourse research, I often feel that the findings based on discourse analysis is not as “important” as those in social science studies (for example, political science). In most cases, the findings are limited to the discourse pattens of the argument which was already common understanding in some social science disciplines. So what can we do to make a difference?
What are the emerging research areas and trends within the fields of agricultural extension and agricultural social sciences?
I am interested to understand the most recent advancements in research, innovative methodologies, and pressing challenges that researchers are currently exploring in this fields. Your insights will greatly contribute to my understanding of the evolving landscape of agricultural extension research.
How to use theory in social science research. what is the process of applying theory in social science research?
How can researchers of social sciences can register their patents? If a researcher in social science like economics and management decides to register a concept firstly s/he developed, what is the process to register it?
Dear Scholars,
Which is the most important for human survival in the present era?
Your valuable comments will be highly appreciated.

One of my review articles has been selected by IJSSRR. They asked me for an APC, which is 40 euro. I am pretty confused about their reputations by checking their website details.
Should I proceed to publish with them?

What is the best Quantitative Research Methods textbook for Social Sciences Phd and MS Level students?
I am in the process of finalizing my individual grant proposal.
I really need your recommendation and your suggestions.
I have a question regarding my research, which will include interviews with experts and scientists. To ensure methodological reliability, I need at least two intercoders to participate in data analysis.
Could you advise how I can include these people in the project as intercoders?
Could these be the scientists who signed the LoI to collaborate on the project?
What is the correct way to describe this thing?
I will be grateful to you for any recommendations and advice.
Best regards,
Sabina
We are assessing content for originality, as lecturers reading assignments or as reviewers or editors assessing papers. What are the tools you use to detect AI content, which is the new challenge on originality?
I recently found https://contentdetector.ai/ works decently with undergrad student frauds, yet I really am curious whether there are other tools or procedures you recommend.
Good day, please i wish to request for any or list of free APC journals in Management of Social Science. it must not be SCOPUS or Thompson Reuters. Your kind response will be highly appreciated. Thank you.
Hello everyone. I am a novice researcher trying to do an experimental research study in business/social sciences field. I'd be really grateful if somebody could answer my questions.
looking for any reference for social sciences.
Seeking insights into the forefront of agricultural extension research, this question aims to explore the novel methodologies that have recently emerged in the field.
While it is common practice in the health field to use validated descriptors available in thesauri or glossaries, in other fields it is apparent that researchers use the terms they feel are most appropriate. By ignoring accepted terminology, their work may fall off the radar of database searches. An example of this is the choice of keywords that are not associated with validated descriptors. As a direct consequence, literature reviews in some areas, particularly in the social sciences, may produce results with increasing levels of error. I believe that this issue should be the subject of further reflection and debate.
This question is dedicated only to sharing important research of OTHER RESEARCHERS (not our own) about complex systems, self-organization, emergence, self-repair, self-assembly, and other exiting phenomena observed in Complex Systems.
Please keep in own mind that each research has to promote complex systems and help others to understand them in the context of any scientific filed. We can educate each other in this way.
Experiments, simulations, and theoretical results are equally important.
Links to videos and animations will help everyone to understand the given phenomenon under study quickly and efficiently.
I'm curious about interpretivism in research and whether it primarily centers on studying individuals or if it can be extended to include groups as valid research subjects.
Specifically, I want to compare two different actor groups, assuming that each group shares similar worldviews internally but differs from one another.
Do you think interpretivism can effectively be applied to study groups, or is it only suited for understanding individual perspectives?
If you have any additional literature or resources on this topic, please feel free to share them with me! I'm eager to expand my knowledge.
Dear colleagues,
My name is Sabina Augunas, and I hold a Ph.D. in Pharmaceutical Sciences. Currently, I am a fellowship at TIB -Leibniz Information Centre for Science and Technology and University Library, and I am preparing a grant proposal to participate in a competition for an individual postdoctoral grant. My research topic revolves around examining researchers' perspectives on predatory conferences.
Within this study, I plan to employ mixed methods, including conducting interviews with respondents. In the "Researchers in Germany and abroad with whom you have agreed to cooperate on this project" section of the grant proposal, I am seeking researchers who have experience with mixed methods and conducting research in the field of social sciences. If you possess such expertise, I would greatly appreciate your support and collaboration with this project, as it would significantly enhance my chances of obtaining the individual grant.
Below is a brief project description:
Scientific conferences have been an integral tool for scientific communication and knowledge dissemination among researchers for decades. In the modern world, where research evaluation, audit culture, and internationalization of science have become key factors, attending conferences and presentations has become a necessary component for achieving scientific goals in all areas of science. However, despite many scholars exploring available resources, there has been insufficient attention to predatory conferences. There is a lack of knowledge not only about the motivations of researchers to attend such conferences but also about the criteria that define a conference as predatory, as well as about the quantity of such conferences. Of particular concern is the statement that the number of predatory conferences may exceed an acceptable norm. If true, targeted efforts are needed to fill this gap.
The project aims to address the following research questions: What motivates participation in predatory conferences, and what are the long-term consequences for researchers? It is important to distinguish between legitimate and predatory conferences. To achieve these goals, qualitative and quantitative analytical tools will be utilized, including the Delphi method. Expert groups will be formed, taking into account scientific discipline, gender, career stages, and geographical regions, in order to broaden the scope of research. The study will involve comparing predatory and legitimate academic conferences, considering criteria such as peer-review processes, speaker quality, funding sources, publication opportunities, and reputation. The motivation and reasons for researchers participating in predatory conferences, as well as the role of organizers in this process, will be examined. Strategies and ethical principles will be developed during the research to assist researchers in avoiding predatory conferences and safeguarding their scientific interests. The impact of predatory conferences on the academic community, factors contributing to their proliferation, and ethical considerations will also be assessed. Ultimately, the project will enhance understanding of the differences between predatory and legitimate conferences, draw attention to the risks, and help researchers make informed decisions when choosing conferences and managing their careers.
I am looking forward to your feedback and the possibility of collaboration.
Best regards,
Dr. Sabina Augunas
Dear all
I need a fast and good publication journal In social sciences. One month review process for the first response.
thanks
Although reiterated mantra of many studies about the monopolisation of decision-making by catholic clergy when having a closer look, it seems that the complex chain of ecclesia-forming interdependences and interactions each time allows consideration that are including opinions of larger community and even of dissidents from official teaching. As it could be proved by some discourses on reinterpretation of existing teaching, e. g. clergy celibacy or ordination of women.
Unethical business practices operate in different countries to varying degrees and participate in economic processes.
For many entities, market participants, business partners and consumers, they generate additional costs.
They can also be a source of gray economy growth, including avoiding paying taxes.
Thus, there are social costs for individual entities and financial for the entire economy.
On the capital markets, one of unethical business practices is, for example, insider trading, ie the use of confidential information by decision-makers with access to confidential information used to conduct transactions to purchase or sell financial instruments, including securities or other securities or other capital markets.
In individual countries, there are various instruments to combat the use of unethical business practices, the shadow economy, etc.
The effectiveness of individual normative solutions, the scale of restrictions applied, and the business mentality of market participants, entrepreneurs and businessmen are different.
Another mentality is related to the level of awareness regarding corporate social responsibility.
In individual countries, social campaigns are carried out suggesting the legitimacy of developing concepts based on corporate social responsibility.
In view of the above, please answer the following question: Is unethical business practices a negative external effect of non-ideal market structures or imperfection of the social market economy?
Please, answer, comments. I invite you to the discussion.
l would like to publish in a Social science journal am interested in health issues. Kindly assist with a list of journals and the publication fees if available.
What are the most serious problems of civilization development that should be solved as soon as possible? What are the global problems for which research should be developed and solutions to these problems resolved in 2019 and in subsequent years?
One of such research problems, which should not be postponed for an indefinite future, is the need to develop environment-friendly sustainable economic development in order to slow down the adverse process of global warming.
With the warming of the Earth's climate, the risk of more dramatic climate cataclysms, including tsunamis, increases.
Tsunami may be a derivative of the global warming problem. Global warming generates an increase in climate disasters, including more cases of tsunamis.
But not only is the risk of more violent and more dramatic tsunamis rising. Also in recent years, there has been more other types of climate and natural climate catatics, such as droughts, rainstorms, tornadoes and weather anomalies.
At present, it should no longer be asked whether global warming generates an increase in natural disasters only what rate of growth will be recorded in the future? So many data, research centers confirms the progressing process of global warming, that the problem is unquestionable.
More and more data points to the growing risk of climate change, unfavorable for human and life on the Earth, increase of climate disasters, climatic and weather anomalies, which are the result of global warming, rising average annual temperature near the Earth's surface.
Now we should just ask: How can these adverse processes be counteracted? What ecological technologies, renewable energy sources, how to help natural environments, how to rebuild them, such as afforestation, to build natural ecosystems absorbing greenhouse gases?
How to develop ecological business ventures? How to create financing systems for this type of pro-ecological projects? How to dispel international cooperation in this matter? What actions should be taken to move towards the development of a new ecological green economy?
How to develop environmentally sustainable economic development to slow down the unfavorable warming of the Earth's climate?
