Analyzing Inequalities: An Introduction to Race, Class,
Gender, and Sexuality Using the General Social Survey is a
practical resource for helping students connect sociological
issues with real-world data in the context of their first
undergraduate sociology courses. This worktext introduces
readers to the GSS, one of the most widely analyzed surveys in
the United States; examines a range of GSS questions related
to social inequalities; and demonstrates basic techniques for
analyzing this data online. No special software is required-the
exercises can be completed using the University of California,
Berkeley, Survey Documentation and Analysis (SDA) website,
which is easy to navigate and master.
This worktext is designed to be used in a range of 100-level and 200-level courses
including introductory sociology, social problems, and courses that focus on race,
class, gender, or sexuality.
Students are introduced to basic analytic techniques in the social sciences, such as
frequency distributions, cross-tabulations, and comparisons of means.
Screen captures from the SDA website and careful step-by-step instructions are
provided to help students with no previous data analysis experience.
Early chapters focus on single categories of difference and inequality; later
chapters examine how these factors intersect within the domains of family,
education, and work.
Multiple-choice questions and open-ended exercises test mastery of the material
and give students opportunities to extend their analyses to other questions.
