Scholar is a better word than scientist for a sociologist, because the term scientist implies a certain freedom from political correctness. The second meaning of the suffix -logy is "the science or study of something," but the "soft sciences" such as sociology and economics are more like a jumbled heap of beliefs and statistics when compared to "hard sciences" like physics or chemistry.
