observations
Answered by Ms. Sue
Observations is a start and a way to get personally involved. These observations can be in the form of volunteering at a meal site and a homeless shelter.

You'd also need to read studies analyzing homeless people. How many are drug addicts or mentally challenged? How many lost their homes because of being laid off? What are other reasons that people are homeless?

How can a sociologist genuinely maintain value neutrality while studying a group that he or she finds repugnant
Answered by Ms. Sue
A good sociolgist understands the underlying causes and characteristics of a group. Knowledge and empathy will dissipate the repugnance.
