USE OF EXPERIMENTAL METHODS IN THE FIELD OF MIGRATION STUDIES

Öz

Experimental methods provide social scientists with unique opportunities to investigate research questions that cannot be answered by other observational methods and allow them to establish casual relationships. With those attributes, experimental methods have been increasingly employed in the field of migration studies. The current study briefly introduces different experimental methods and discusses their use in migration studies by drawing on an extensive literature review.

GÖÇ ÇALIŞMALARI ALANINDA DENEYSEL METOT KULLANIMI

Öz

Sosyal bilimlerde deneysel yöntemlerin kullanımı araştırmacılara diğer niceliksel ve niteliksel araştırma yöntemleriyle yanıtlanması mümkün olmayan soruları yanıtlama ve incelenen nedensellik ilişkilerini bağlı oldukları diğer faktörlerden yalıtarak inceleme fırsatı sunmaktadır. Bu yönleriyle deneysel yöntemler göç çalışmaları alanında da giderek artan bir oranda kullanılmaya başlanmıştır. Deneysel yöntemlerin ana hatlarıyla tanıtıldığı bu çalışmada ayrıca farklı deney türlerinin metotların göç çalışmaları alanında hangi konu ve araştırma soruları için yaygın olarak kullanıldıkları kapsamlı bir literatür taraması aracılığıyla sunulmaktadır.
