Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA): A Set-Analytic Approach To Studying Configurations
Academy of Management Boston, MA, United StatesThe PDW includes 3 Parts. If you have no or only a little knowledge of, and experience with, QCA you can join us during Part 1 to learn the basic “nuts and bolts” of QCA and configurational logic and understand if this might be the right tool for your research project. If you’re joining us … Continue reading Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA): A Set-Analytic Approach To Studying Configurations
Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA)
Università della Svizzera Italiana Via Giuseppe Buffi 13, Lugano, Ticino, SwitzerlandThis workshop provides participants with a thorough introduction to Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA). Since its inception (Ragin 1987), QCA has gained recognition among social scientists as a case-based research method that is ideally suited to capture causal complexity. This essentially describes a situation where an outcome results from multiple pathways and different combinations of conditions. … Continue reading Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA)
Tübingen Methods Center Fall School, Qualitative Comparative Analysis Workshop
University of Tübingen Geschwister-Scholl-Platz, Tübingen, GermanyBased on formal logic, set theory and Boolean algebra, Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) is a research method used to analyse combinations of conditions which are sufficient and/or necessary for the outcome under study. Developed by the political scientist and sociologist Charles Ragin, QCA focuses holistically on cases as combinations of factors rather than on the … Continue reading Tübingen Methods Center Fall School, Qualitative Comparative Analysis Workshop

Introduction to Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) using R
Tampere, Finland Tampere, FinlandThis course introduces students to the nuts and bolts of Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA), an innovative set-theoretic technique that allows for comparisons of small, intermediate or large numbers of cases in order to identify necessary and/or sufficient conditions for an outcome. It is an attractive method for scholars who seek to model causally complex patterns … Continue reading Introduction to Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) using R
Introduction to Causal Data Analysis and Modeling with Coincidence Analysis
Rush University 600 S. Paulina St., Chicago, IL, United StatesThis workshop offers an intensive 4-day introduction to causal modeling with Coincidence Analysis (CNA), a novel configurational comparative method of data analysis geared towards causal complexity, which has seen a considerable uptick in applications in recent years (click here for references). No prior knowledge of CNA is required. In plenary lectures, the main developer of … Continue reading Introduction to Causal Data Analysis and Modeling with Coincidence Analysis
Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) Workshop at GSERM, St. Gallen
GSERM, University of St. Gallen Tellstrasse 2 9000 St. Gallen, St. Gallen, SwitzerlandThe goal of this workshop is to provide a ground-up introduction to Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) and fuzzy sets. Participants will get intensive instruction and hands-on experience with the fsQCA software package and on completion should be prepared to design and execute research projects using the set-analytic approach.
