Lesson 1: Defining the Social Sciences

The social sciences are vast fields of scientific studies that investigate human societies and the different forces that work within them.
These diverse fields examine how people interact and develop culture. The social science is made up of several disciplines and these include history,
political science, sociology, psychology, economics, geography, demography, anthropology and linguistics. As a body of scientific knowledge, the
social sciences provide a diverse set of lenses that help us understand and explain the different facets of human society. The varieties of lens that
social sciences study refer to the different fields of the social sciences that investigate human society. Each field of the social sciences uses a unique
set of lenses comprised of a body of concepts, theories, frameworks, and methodologies that help us understand and study the multifarious forces that
constitute and affect human society.

Branches of the social Sciences

 Economics
Economics studies the allocation of scarce resources and the production and exchange of goods and services in society. Economics endeavors to
understand and explain human activities in relation to the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services. As a discipline of the
social sciences, economics analyses the supply and demand principles, economic fluctuations, savings, and investments and costs and prices.

 Anthropology
Anthropology is the scientific study of humans and their cultures in the past and present time. To understand the complexity of cultures across
all of human history, anthropology draws and builds upon knowledge drawn from the social and biological sciences and the humanities and physical
sciences. Its studies are commonly associated with the study of the culture of preliterate and unindustrialized societies.
 History
History is a systematic study of human past events in order to understand the meaning, dynamics, and relationship of the causes and effects of
events in the development of societies, at is derived from the Greek word historia, which means "inquiry" or "investigation". As a social science,
history focuses on the reconstruction and recreation of past events as they actually happened through the use of primary sources and secondary

sources. Primary sources refer to eyewitness accounts or contemporaneous accounts about the event. They also use secondary sources or evidences
that are not eye-witness accounts and are based from the primary sources.
 Political Science
Political science primarily studies human behaviour in relation to political systems governments laws, and international relations. It examines
the relationship between people and policy at all levels from the individual to the national and international levels. Political science has several fields
of study. It includes domestic politics, comparative politics, international relations, political theory, public administration and public law. Domestic
politics studies public opinion, elections„ national and local governments. Comparative politics studies politics within countries and analyses the
similarities and differences between and among countries. International relations focus on the study of political relationship and interaction between
and among countries, Political theory studies classical political philosophy and contemporary theories, Public administration studies national and
local governance and the bureaucracy. Public law examines legal systems, civil rights, and criminal justice.
 Psychology
Psychology studies how the human mind works in consonance with the body to produce thoughts that lead to individual actions. Psychology
analyzes how people and groups experience the world through various emotions, ideas, and in different conscious states. It has, different subfields.
These disciplines of psychology include experimental psychology, developmental psychology, personality psychology, social psychology, and
environmental psychology. Experimental psychology studies behavior of humans and animals and examines how and why learning takes place.
Developmental psychology studies the ways people change and behave as they go through their life. Personality psychology studies human nature
and difference' people. Social psychology looks into the behaviour of people in groups. Environmental psychology studies the effects of surroundings
on a person's attitude and behaviour.
 Sociology
Sociology is a systematic study of people's behavior in groups; It is derived from the Latin word socio which means "people together" and
Greek word logos which means "the study of." As a discipline of the social science, it attempts to understand why and how people interact with each
other and how they function as a society or social subgroups. This discipline looks into general and regular/ patterns of human behavior and it
examines social structures, collective human actions(social relationships and norm', and its impact on individual behavior (Repko, 2008, p. 69).
Sociology is one of the most diverse fields of the social sciences. There are numerous subfields that one can pursue and specialize as a sociology
major, These includes applied sociology, urban sociology, cultural sociology, rural sociology, medical sociology, sociological theory, sociology of
education, political sociology, and military sociology.
 Geography
Geography is the study of the interaction between people and their environments. Geography was derived from the Greek words: geo
meaning "Earth" and graphos meaning "charting" or "mapping. Geography explores both the physical properties of Earth's surface and their
relationship with human societies. It also studies how human culture interacts with the natural environment and the impact of locations and places on
people.There are two main branches of Geography, namely, Physical Geography and Human Geography. Physical Geography studies the natural
features of the earth, including land, water, and atmosphere. Human Geography on the other hand, studies how people create cultures in their natural
environments.
 Demography
According to the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research (2016), demography is the scientific study of human populations across
time. It examines the changes in population growth through the analysis of statistics on birth, human movement, and morbidity, agedness, and
mortality. One important subfield of demography is population studies or social demography. Social demographers analyze demographic data to
define, explain, and foresee social phenomena. It also studies social-status composition and population distribution.

DEFINING THE APPLIED SOCIAL SCIENCES

The applied social sciences were introduced as a reaction to the highly segmented and compartmentalized division of the social science
disciplines that dominated western research training during the late 1990s and until the end of the twentieth century. Scholars from the social sciences
argued that there is a need for more cooperation within the different disciplines of the social sciences. This means that the different fields of the social
sciences must effectively work together in addressing issues. This multidisciplinary approach to the study of different issues in society became the
main focus and beginnings of the applied social sciences. Compared to the social sciences that focus on the theoretical study of society, the applied
social sciences focus on the use and application of the different concepts, theoretical models, and theories of the social science disciplines to help
understand society and the different problems and issues it faces. The applied social sciences is utilized to provide alternative solutions to the diverse
problems of society (Gouldner, 1989).
Applied social scientists can use his/her training in different real-life work settings. Having been exposed to the different theories, concepts,
methodologies, and frameworks of the different fields of the social sciences, an applied social scientist has diverse functions and careers where he/she
can apply his learnings and skills. There are three main career tracks for applied social scientists. These include (1) Counseling; (2) Social work; and
(3) Communications.

 Counseling
Counseling is one of the fields of the applied social sciences. As an application of the social sciences, counseling provides guidance, help, and
support to individuals who are distraught by a diverse set of problems in their lives. Through counseling, professional guidance is given to an
individual and this is done by applying psychological methods like collection of case history data personal interviews and aptitudes tests: Counseling
‘can be done by guidance counselors, life coaches career counselors, and personal growth counselors,
Guidance counseling and life coaching are applications of the social sciences and in these professions, expert help is given to individuals who
-needed guidance or advice pertaining to their business successes; general conditions and personal life and career. A life coach analyzes the present
condition of the client, discovers different obstacles or challenges that a client faces, and provides a certain course of action to make the clients life
better-Career counseling is needed by people who are in the process of entering the, job market, searching for possible career change 'or those
venting career advancements. Personal growth counseling concentrates on the evaluation of the different aspects of a client life. A good personal
growth counselor takes time to integrate the client's past and present to develop one’s future plans and goals in life. In this form of counseling the
practitioner incorporates the techniques and approaches of, Life and career, counseling with investigative work.
 Social Work
Social work is another professional activity of the applied social sciences. Having been trained in the social sciences to Interact and understand
s0ciaL realities, an applied social science practitioner has a good theoretical and conceptual foundation for social work practice. In social work,
practitioners help individuals, families, groups, and communities to improve their individual and collective well-being through social work, people
enhance theirs I and ability o that they can use their own resources and of the community to resolve social problems. Social work does not only deal
with individual and personal problems but it also addresses social issues such as poverty, unemployment, and domestic violence. Social workers play
different roles and duties in society They can be involved in advocacy campaign and work counseling, issue and conflict mediation, and research.
They can also ser e as educators, case managers, facilitators, and agents of community change.
 Communication Studies

The applied social sciences provide adequate training for careers in the communication industry. One example of careers in the
communication industry is fin the field of mass media. In the news and current affairs department of major television and radio networks, for
example, practitioners stress the importance of balance, objective, truthful and creative rendering of the news and other important events as they
actually happened; Practitioners -in the applied social sciences have enough training 'in this area because they are equipped with theories and
concepts about communication .that allows them to understand and inform the public about the social, political, cultural and economic realities.
Communication practitioners are equipped with skills to write; produce and deliver news accurately and creatively to the viewing public.
In the entertainment industry, there is great need to understand the needs and consumption patterns of the viewing public. It is necessary to
cope up with the changing demands of the viewers 'in order to get the audience's attention and product choices and preferences. The applied social
sciences prove to be important in this aspect of the communication industry because a strong foundation in the study of the people's viewing and
consuming behavior and patterns are emphasized in this multidisciplinary 'field through the application of knowledge and methodologies learned
from the field of economics, sociology, anthropology, and psychology.

Chapter 2: Counseling
Lesson 1: The Discipline of Counseling

 THE MEANING OF COUNSELING

Nystul (2003) defined counseling as basically an art and a science wherein you endeavor to weigh the objective and subjective facets of the
counseling process. Counseling as an art is the subjective dimension of counseling. It upholds a flexible and creative process whereby the counselor
modifies the approach to meet the developing needs of the clients. It is also associated with the act of giving oneself and being compassionate in
counseling processes.
Counseling as a science, on the other hand, is the objective dimension of the counseling process. It is about counselors who are discerning and
possesses skills to formulate objective observations and inferences (Nystul, 2003). The art and science of counseling signifies an intensification of the
scientist-practitioner model or the Boulder Model (Myers, 2007). The model indicates an integration of the art and science in counseling which
shapes guidelines that combine science and practice.
In practical terms, counseling happens when a person who is distressed asks for help and permits another person to enter into a kind of
connection with him/her. It is indicative of someone in search of counseling requests for time and attention from a person who will listen, who will
allow him/her to speak and who will not condemn and criticize him/her. This type of relationship is a formal helping, where a counselor-counselee
relationship is established.
Informal helping is akin with formal helping in some ways such as presence of good listening skills, empathy and caring capacity.
Nevertheless, in formal helping there is a greater degree of confidentiality and objectivity. People trust that the counselor will keep their oath of
allegiance as licensed counselor who will observe their code of ethics and ethical standards (Nystul, 2003). Counseling is a fundamental part in the
area of helping not only in social work but also in guidance. It is a particular process of providing aid to a person who seeks help. Counseling exists
when you meet with a trained professional who has the knowledge, skills, and orientation to deliver required services. The trained professional is a
counselor who will accompany you—listen to you and assist and help you to meet your goals.

 GOALS OF COUNSELING
The key component of individual, group, organizational and community success is the setting of goals. Counseling, like any form of helping,
must be motivated by goals. It would be more challenging to reach your desired destination if you lack or 'are unaware oi your goals. The primary
goal of counseling is to help people utilize their prevailing social skills and problem-solving skills more functionally or to cultivate new surviving
and coping skills. Detailed and expansive counseling goals have been identified by Gibson and Mitchell (2003), which are as follows:
1. Development Goals—assist in meeting or advancing the client's human growth and development including social, personal, emotional, cognitive,
and physical wellness
2. Preventive Goals—helps the client avoid some undesired outcome
3. Enhancement Goals—enhance special skills and abilities
4. Remedial Goals—assisting a client to overcome and treat an undesirable development
5. Exploratory Goals—examining options, testing of skills, trying new and different activities, etc.
6. Reinforcement Goals—helps client in recognizing that what they are doing, thinking, and feeling is fine
7. Cognitive Goals—involves acquiring the basic foundation of learning I and cognitive skills
8. Physiological Goals—involves acquiring the basic understanding and habits for good health
9.Psychological Goals—aids in developing good social interaction skills, learning emotional control, and developing positive self-concept

 SCOPE OF COUNSELING
Counseling is a broad concept with diverse meanings and goals. The identified goals above indicate the scope of counseling. Counseling is
necessary in almost every aspect of a person's life — cognitive, behavioral, systemic, social, psychological, and others. It is also applied to
individuals, family, and groups.
On individual counseling, many issues are covered such as depression, sexual abuse, anxiety, gender, relationships, spirituality, ideology,
adolescent issues, loss, anxiety, anger, stress, vocation, studies, and others. In terms of family counseling, issues include divorce, family dynamics,
transitions in life, miscommunication, jealousy, money matters, parenting, remarriage, and others.
A more focused subject matter related to scope of counseling is the 4757-15 Scope of Practice for Licensed Professional Counselors. It
contains the rights and responsibilities of licensed counselors including the following:

Licensed Professional Counselors may for a fee, salary, or other considerations

1. afford counseling services to individuals, groups, organizations, or the general public comprising of: application of clinical counseling principles,
methods, or procedures to assist individuals in realizing effective personal, social, educational, or career development and adjustment.
2. "apply clinical counseling principles, methods, and procedures," means an approach to counseling that emphasizes the counselor's role in
systematically assisting clients through all of the following: assessing and analyzing emotional conditions, exploring possible solutions and
developing and providing a treatment plan for mental and emotional adjustment or development. It may include counseling, appraisal, consulting,
supervision, administration, and referral.
3. engage in the diagnosis and treatment of mental and emotional disorders when under the supervision of a professional clinical counselor,
psychologist, psychiatrist, independent marriage and family therapist, or independent social worker.
4. provide training supervision for students and registered counselor trainees when services are within their scope of practice, which does not include
supervision of the diagnosis and treatment of mental and emotional disorders.

 CAREER OPPORTUNITIES AND AREAS OF SPECIALIZATION OF COUNSELORS
The various counseling needs that arise in different settings define the career opportunities and specialization of counselors. These areas include
marriage and family counseling, child and adolescent counseling, group counseling, career counseling, school counseling, and mental health
counseling. The following outlines and describes the counselors area of specialization (Nystul, 2003):
 Marriage and Family Counseling
Marriage and family counseling refers to the efforts to establish an encouraging relationship with a couple or family and appreciate the
complications in the family system. This approach recommends that marriage and family counselors enter a family system not as experts but as an

The special counseling population is composed of people who abuse drugs, people who us use tobacco, women, older adults, people with AIDS,
victims of abuse, gay men and lesbian women, and people with disabilities (Gibson and Mitchell, 2003). The items below briefly describe each of the
special counseling population.

 People Who Abuse Drugs

In our society, there are increasing drug users. Drug abuse is not just harmful to our physical health but to our mental health as well. It cannot be
denied that drug addiction create more social problems and contributo to social disintegration. Consequently, more youth victims cry for holp and
sock

 People Who Use Tobacco

Slowly, our population recognizes the bad effects of tobacco to our health. However, many people still use and continue to use tobacco even if it
is deadly. Users find it difficult to stop smoking. Hence, smokers who desire to quit tobacco were added to the list of the counselor's audiences.

 People Who Abuse Alcohol

Alcoholism is seen as a disease and alcoholics find it difficult to stop drinking on their own. This requires help from a professional as it requires
appropriate treatment. However, an equally important paradigm is to look at alcoholism as a weakness of self-control and self-discipline. Therefore
this requires intervention other than treatment.

 Women
Even with the changing role of women in society, men still predominantly control purchasing and decision-making powers. Most men still have
less participation in household responsibilities and child care. In this case, women's advancement is constrained. What complicates this situation is
the women's perception about themselves and the society's expectations. Counselors are responsible in helping women appreciate their own values,
abilities, aptitudes, and interests and to utilize these to develop their full potential (Gibson and Mitchel, 2003).

 Older Adults
The aging population is increasingly rising and demands more attention. Retirees who are adjusting to life outside work@el lost and ignored.
Life for them suddenly loses meaning. A transition froma busy life to retirement stage must be instituted. This is a challenge to the counseling
profession. Other aging issues that require attention of counseling include loss of a partner, decline of mental capacity and mobility, increased
loneliness, decline in financial security, etc.

 People with Aids

Acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) has been labeled as the most feared disease due to its incurability. Victims of this disease are
seeking help to improve their quality of life and to handle their emotional stress and low self-esteem. Counseling approach requires sensitivity and
appreciation ffthe intricacies of the disease. Counselors may also help in assisting and educating the victim's support system.

 Victims of Abuse
This population represents victims of domestic violence characterized by spouse and child abuses. Spouse abuse is often associated with
poverty, drug abuse, and career disappointments. The abuse has also become rampant and has caused psychological damage to the victims. The
counselors are increasingly being utilized to help the victims.
 Gay Men and Lesbian Women
There is a growing number of gays and lesbians that are coming out. However, there are still sectors in the society, including their own families,
that avoid and discriminate them. They are usually the victims of harassment, violence, discrimination, and isolation. Gays and lesbians, like other
sectors of the society, suffer from peer denial, family clash, health uncertainties, prejudgment. Counseling will focus on self-awareness, self-
acceptance, and understanding.

Chapter 2: Counseling
Lesson 4: Counseling and Its Work Setting
 COUNSELING AND ITS WORK SETTINGS
Counselors are employed in different work settings such as schools, community, private sector, mental facilities, and government. However,
most are deployed in school settings and mental facilities.

 Counselors in Schools
Counseling in schools has grown rapidly. According to Gibson and Mitchell (2003), counselors are recognized especially in the preventive
interventions and developmental stage. There are elementary school counselors, junior high school counselors, secondary school counselors,
counselors in vocational schools, counselors in higher education, and counselors in community and junior colleges.The counseling service in the
schools is usually located under the student affairs program. It is under the supervision of the Dean of Student Affairs.

 Counselors in Community Setting

This setting refers to employment in community, agency, and other nonschool professional situations. Counselors can be found in community
and mental health agencies, employment and rehabilitation agencies, correctional settings, and marriage and family practice (Gibson and Mitchell,
2003).

 Counselors in the Private Sector

This setting refers to counselors who decided to do full time work as private practitioners or engage in part-time private practice while employed
by community agencies. This is feasible if the counselors' expertise and specialization matches or relevant to a adequate client population in the
geographic area (Gibson and Mitchell, 2003).

 Counselors in the Government

Counselors are also present in various agencies of government or institutions supported by the government that are into social welfare, health,
and education. Relevant agencies or institutions include public schools, public hospitals, public social welfare agencies such as that for the youth,
children, and the aging.
