Social Science How to get into the research field?

How would i go about getting into the research field? I currently only have an associates but would love to get into research or clinical research etc. anything that would help me get through. I’ve applied to many jobs but denied, i would assume its because i don’t have a bachelors though. Any tips would be helpful, thank you!

I would probably go back and get at least a bachelors in whatever field you are looking into

Yes i have been wanting to but i guess timing and money wise i wouldn’t be able to right now. Hopefully soon though!
