与许多其他方法学主题相比,操作化一直是较少研究的焦点。在本文中,我们认为考虑操作决策对于那些研究分层的人来说尤其重要,因为不平等的测量通常涉及多层操作化:研究人员首先决定如何将个人分配给社会群体(例如,种族),然后它们自己用于构建群体水平差异和不平等的测量(例如,种族隔离)。我们通过借鉴当代关于如何运作基于阶级、种族、性别和宗教的社会群体的辩论来提供这方面的例子。然后,我们讨论了三个例子(宗教、种族隔离和家庭类型)的第二层操作化决策,重点关注操作决策对研究结果的影响。最后,我们讨论了运营决策的更广泛的影响,特别关注政策制定者的权力和应用问题。
Operationalization has been the focus of less research than many other methodological topics. In this article, we argue that considering operational decisions is particularly critical for those who study stratification, because measures of inequality often involve multiple layers of operationalization: researchers first decide how to assign individuals to social groups (e.g., race), which are then themselves used to construct measures of group‐level differences and inequality (e.g., racial segregation). We provide examples of this by drawing on contemporary debates about how to operationalize social groups based on class, race, gender, and religion. Then we discuss three examples (religion, racial segregation, and family type) of second layer operationalization decisions, focusing on the consequences of operational decisions for research findings. We conclude by discussing the broader implications of operational decisions, focusing particularly on issues of power and applications for policy makers.
