Following are a few statements made on the basis of the above passage:
1. Our understanding of social phenomena has been enriched by new methods of data collection and analysis.
2. Large datasets can now be analyzed with exceptional speed and accuracy.
3. Expanding digital communication platforms have enabled researchers to observe and interpret the nuances of virtual communities.
4. The sociologists are prompted by technological advancements to abandon the studies related to human relationships and social institutions.
Which of the above statement/s is/are incorrect?
Answer: A
Only statement 4 is incorrect.
Statements 1, 2 and 3 are all in the passage: new methods have expanded our understanding of social phenomena, large datasets can be analysed with great speed and accuracy, and digital platforms let researchers observe virtual communities.
Statement 4 reverses the passage, which says technology prompted sociologists to explore changes in human relationships and social institutions, not to abandon those studies.
