Social science is the study of society and the manner in which people
behave and affect the world.
Social sciences are only applicable in the academe and not in the
workplace.
Applied social scientist use and borrow different concepts, theoretical
models, and theories from social science and disciplines.
Guidance counselling is a profession that helps address a person’s specific
projects, business successes, general conditions and transitions in life,
relationships, or profession
Applied social sciences provide good theoretical and conceptual
foundations for social work practice.
Psychology studies how human mind work in consonance with the body to
produce thoughts that lead to individual actions.

DEFINING SOCIAL SCIENCES
As compared to the natural sciences, which is discipline that deals only with natural events (the independent and
dependent variables in nature) using scientific methods, defining social science is a bit more complex as it
examines society and the intricate relationships among individuals within society.
While social interactions may have been of interest to many scholars and philosophers even in the earliest times,
it was only in the 19th century that social sciences as an academic discipline was institutionalized. This started
with the publication of Suicide by Emily Durheim and Systeme de Politique Positive by August Comte- both
scientific studies of the relationship between individual and their society.
Social Sciences – is made 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 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.
FIELDS OF THE SOCIAL SCIENCES
FIELDS DEFINITION
Economics studies the allocation of scarce resources and the production and exchange of
goods and services in society.
Anthropology the scientific study of humans and their cultures in the past and present time.
History systematic study of human past events in order to understand the meaning,
dynamics, and relationship of the cause and effects of events in the development
of societies.
Political Science primarily studies human behavior in relation to political systems, governments,
laws, and international relations.
Psychology studies how the human mind works in consonance with the body to produce
thoughts that lead to individual actions.
Sociology a systematic study of people’s behavior in groups

Geography the study of interaction between people and their environments.
Demography according to the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research (2016)
demography is the scientific study of human populations across time.

WHAT IS THE APPLIED SOCIAL SCIENCE?
Applied Social Sciences can be defined as the practical application of social science knowledge. It is branch of
study that applies the different concepts, theoretical models, and theories of the social science disciplines to
help understand society and the different problems and issues. The applied social sciences are utilized to
provide alternative solutions to the diverse problem of the society.
Borrowing concepts from Aristotle, we can locate the distinction between social sciences and applied social
sciences in episteme and tecne. Episteme broadly refer to the production of knowledge, which pertains to the
field of social sciences. Meanwhile, techne is loosely translated into “art” or “craft” which in this case pertains to
applied social sciences with its emphasis on putting theories into practice. Gouldner (1989) provide a more
detailed explanation of applied social science:
a. As previously discussed, it makes use of the loose concepts rather than generalized propositions and
theories.
b. Not all concepts or theoretical models of social science are equally useful to applied social science.
c. It is more likely to borrow from their basic disciplines those concepts and theoretical models which can
aid applied social scientist in understanding or producing changes.
d. When the basic discipline does not provide theoretical systems or concepts to aid the applied social
scientist to deal with change, the latter will develop these himself.
e. These new concepts will in turn, exert pressure to produce modifications in the theories of the basic
discipline.
However, both social science and applied social science are two sides of the same coin and, in line
separating both academic fields is becoming increasingly blurred. For example, there is now a conscious shift
in current studies done in most fields under social sciences towards practical application; an end goal of
contributing go society’s progress and the empowerment of the individual is prioritized. Likewise, most applied
social scientist has increasingly turned to theories to enrich their field or to help explain particular cases they
have encountered. Lasty, with the increasing trend on interdisciplinary studies, students are encouraged to
look past their specific disciplines to create a holistic picture of any given phenomenon.
THE FIELD OF APPLIED SOCIAL SCIENCE
FIELDS DEFINITION
This field provides business principles and other applied skills in the area of accounting.
Accounting It provides an understanding of an individual, group or institutional finances, including
budget and cost analyses, payroll, auditing, and taxes, among others.
Business Administration This specializes in the operations and management of business institutions.
Communication The field focuses on how humans use verbal and nonverbal messages to create meaning
in various contexts across cultures using a variety of channels and media.
Counseling is the skilled and principled use of relationship to facilitate self-knowledge,
Counselling emotional acceptance, and growth for the optimal development of personal resources.
Criminology This focuses on the study of crime, criminal behavior, and the legal system.
The field provides professionals in clinics, hospitals, private practices, nursing homes,
Healthcare Management research facilities and the like with the focused training required to handle the unique
management challenges of the healthcare industries.
Human Resources and This field provides a background in personnel management, staff training and
Organizational development, and the crafting and institution of an organization’s policies and
Development procedures.
Marketing The field includes promotion, creative services, public relations, research, consulting,
communications advertisements, strategy, branding, and much more.
This field is both a professional and academic disciplines that seeks to improve the
quality of life and well-being of an individual, group or community by intervening through
Social Work research, policy, community organizing, direct practice, and teaching in behalf of those
afflicted with poverty or any real or perceived social injustices and violations of the
Page 6 of 20
the Applied Social
human rights.
Three main career tracks for applied social scientist:
Counselling is one of the fields of applied social sciences as an application of the social sciences, counselling
provides guidance, help, and support to individuals who are distraught by a diverse set of problems in their
lives.
Counselling can be done by the following:
Guidance counsellor and life coaching are applications of the social sciences and these professions,
expert help is given to individuals who needed guidance or advice pertaining to their business successes,
general conditions and personal life transitions, relationships and career.
Life coach analyses 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 client’s life better.
Career counselling is needed by people who are in the process of entering the job market, searching for
possible career change, or those wanting career advancements.
Personal growth counselling concentrates on the evaluation of different aspects of a client’s life.
Social work practitioners help individuals, families, and groups, communities to improve their individual and
collective well-being.
Communication Studies- Applied social science provide adequate training for careers in the field of
journalism and mass communication because of multidisciplinary knowledge and skills that graduates learn
from social sciences.

WHAT IS COUNSELING?
TJ is a senior high school student who is confused on what course to take in college. He wants to take
up Computer Science because he is interested in computers and computer games. His parents and relatives,
however, want him to be a teacher. His family’s fervent desire for him to be a teacher stem from the fact that
his parents, siblings, and relatives are mostly teacher. TJ is torn between his family and his interest. He then
decided to see the school guidance counselor.
During the sessions, the counselor explored Ben’s motive in choosing what course to take in college.
The counselor then assisted him in determining his aptitude and interests for both academic and computer
science courses by taking tests and career interests inventories. It was during TJ’s sessions with the
counselor that he decided to pursue a course in Computer Science. He was also helped into devising a plan
on how to explain his decision to his family.
TJ’s case is one of the many stories of clients who have divided to undergo counseling. If you were in
TJ’s position, would you have gone to a counselor, too?
COUNSELING DEFINED
Counseling – For Nystul (2003) defined it as basically an art and a science wherein you endeavour to weigh
the objective and subjective facets of the counseling process.
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.
As a science, on the other hand, is the objective dimension of the counseling process.
In practical terms, counseling happens when a person who is distressed asks for help and permit
another person to enter into a kind of connection with him/her. It is indicative with formal of someone in
search of counseling requests for time and attention from person who will listen, who will allow him/her
to speak and who will not condemn and criticize him/her.
Informal helping- is kin with formal helping in some ways such as presence of good listening skills,
empathy, and caring capacity.
Based on Guidance and Counseling Act of 2004, guidance and counseling is the profession that
implicates the application of “an integrated approach to the development of a well-functioning individual
“through the provision of support that aids an individual to use his/her potential to the fullest in accord
with his/her interest, needs and abilities. (University of Queensland, 2015).
At the American Counseling Association (ACA) Conference in Pittsburgh in March 2010, the
representatives come to an agreement on a mutual definition of counseling. They agreed that
counseling is a professional relationship that empowers diverse individuals, families and group
to accomplish mental health, wellness, education, and career goals (Kaplan, Tarvydas, and
Gladding, 2014).
GOALS OF COUNSELING
Counseling is deliberate and a carefully thought-out process. No clients go into counseling and no counselor
conduct counseling just because it strikes their fancy. Goals are very important in counseling.
Establishing clear goals means that a positive outcome is expected after the counseling
relationship is terminated.
Counseling Goals according to Gibson and Mitchell (2003)

1. Development Goals – assist in meeting or advancing the clients 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.

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 and cognitive skills

CORE VALUES
Core Values- is a key component of an organization. It has significant influence on other organizational
components, more specifically, to its members. It serves as standards that shape the members behavior in
their interaction with their clients and other people.
According to Mcleod (2003), the founders of humanistic psychology, including Maslows and Rogers,
highlighted the importance of values.
Ethical Principles of counseling which are follows:
Ethical Principles These are the ideas that underpin both personal and professional codes.
1. Autonomy of individuals
 Is based on the right to freedom of action and freedom of
choice in so far as the pursuit of these freedom does not
interfere with the freedom of others ; counseling cannot happen
unless the client has made a free choice to participate
2. Principle of Non maleficence

 This refers to instruction to all helpers or healers that they
must ,above all, do no harm;
 Beneficence refers to the order to promote human welfare
3. Principle of Justice
 Concerned with the fair distribution of resources and services ,
unless there is some acceptable reason for treating them
differently
 For counseling , the principle has particular relevance to the
question access
General Moral  The BACP Ethical Framework for Good Practice , drawing on virtues
Theories perspective also identified a set of personal qualities that all
practitioners should possess: empathy, sincerity, integrity, resilience,
respect, humility, competence, fairness, wisdom and courage
It is important to note that while goals are important elements of counseling process, the question of who set
the goals is crucial. Krumboltz (as quoted in Schertzer and Stone 1981,173) maintained that a counseling goal
should meet the following criteria:
Page 16 of 20
the Applied Social
a. It must be a goal shared by the client;

b. The counselor must be willing to help the client achieve this goal; and
c. It must be possible to assess the extent to which the client achieves the goal.
Goal setting in counseling is shared responsibility of both counselors and clients. This way, clients can take
ownership on their counseling goals and would not feel that the counselors themselves decided on what the
goal should be.
