Charles Ragin has published a research note on dual calibration, a heretofore undocumented function in the fs/QCA software. Dual calibration applies the direct method but uses four threshold values, allowing one to construct two fuzzy sets from a single variable, simultaneously calibrating “high-X versus not-high-X” and “low-X versus not-low-X.”
Charles Ragin has published a research note on “Stepwise Consistency Analysis,” which offers a method of comparing consistency scores across truth table rows, in order to better understand the dynamics at work within the truth table as a whole. Read it on our “Tutorials, Guides, and Reports” page.
The 11th Annual International QCA Workshops will be held 12-14 December 2023 in Belgium. The International QCA Paper Development Workshop will be held on 12-13 December, followed by the International QCA Experts Workshop.
