The three majors are positivist, interpretive, and critical
1. Positivist major focused on approaching sociology with scientific method and rely more to a quantiative data.
2. Interpretive major focused on understanding the value/belief held by the study.
3. Critical major focused on analyzing a certain social behavior and findind out what could've been done better to achieve more positive impact.
