The concept that social researchers tend to be less social is a hypothetical statement, which I, being researcher, acknowledge. What is needed, to find support if we wanted to research this question?
I am not sure if this issue matter of concern or not. Day by day the social researchers are decreasing in number that those of natural sciences. What are the reasons for this.
