Abstract

Sociological data sets are now being computer analyzed by means of a variety of sophisticated procedures, to produce results that reflect the intricacy of social life. Computers also are being used to conduct simulations of social processes based on mathematical models and to collect the data for analysis.

While opening up new research opportunities, computers also bring certain problems for social researchers and teachers.
