DEFINITION OF SOCIAL SCIENCE AND
APPLIED SOCIAL SCIENCES
Cite differences through Social sciences and Applied social sciences through T-
chart technique.
• The field of “social science” can be considered to cover any study of human interaction.
• An “applied” field is one that is deemed to be more practical than theoretical (the emphasis
is more on practice than on theory)
• the main concern of applied science is about scientific knowledge and how to practice it into
the real world.
• Applied science's neccessity is triggered by research question which become the problem to
be solved. It usually produces practical steps, practical decisions,
as tools to answer the existing problem. It helps stakeholders to develop the systems to be
better. 
 THE SIMILIARITIES BETWEEN
APPLIED SCIENCE AND SOCIAL
SCIENCE:
• Based on scientific research
• Have contribution to civilizations
• Neccessary to human life
• Root of science
• Been done with a scientific methodology
 THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN
APPLIED SCIENCE AND SOCIAL
SCIENCE:
• Purpose
• Applied science: solving problem
• Social science: theory proven
• Trigger
• Applied science: problem to be solved or needs to be developed
• Social science: curiosity
• Object
• Applied science: system
• Social science: people
• Methodology
• Applied science: both quantitative and qualitative
• Social science: qualitative
• Output
• Applied science: technology, invention
• Social science: qualified hypothesis or behavioral theory
