Introduction to Necessary Condition Analysis (NCA)
OnlineFor your research, if you've ever wanted to understand and model causal effects in a rigorous way that reflects the complexity of the real-world. NCA understands a cause as a necessary (but not sufficient) condition, rather than a probabilistic cause (as in regression analysis). “Necessary” means that a certain outcome will not occur without a … Continue reading Introduction to Necessary Condition Analysis (NCA)

Introduction to Causal Data Analysis and Modeling with Coincidence Analysis
Prague University of Economics and Business, Czech Republic , Czech RepublicThis workshop offers an intensive 4-day introduction to causal modeling with Coincidence Analysis (CNA), a relatively new configurational comparative method of data analysis geared towards causal complexity, which has seen a considerable uptick in applications in recent years. No prior knowledge of CNA is required. In plenary lectures, the main developer of CNA, Michael Baumgartner, and … Continue reading Introduction to Causal Data Analysis and Modeling with Coincidence Analysis

Set Theory, Constructivism, and Science: A Symposium on James Mahoney’s The Logic of Social Science
Central European University - Vienna Quellenstraße 51, Vienna, Wien, AustriaIn this hybrid symposium, a panel of scholars discuss James Mahoney’s recent book, The Logic of Social Science. The book develops a scientific constructivist approach that uses set-theoretic analysis to avoid essentialist biases in the production of knowledge. This scientific constructivist approach recognizes that social categories depend on collective understandings for their existence, but it insists … Continue reading Set Theory, Constructivism, and Science: A Symposium on James Mahoney’s The Logic of Social Science

Comparative Research Designs
Radboud University Houtlaan 4, Nijmegen, NetherlandsThe purpose of this course is to provide training on all aspects that enable a researcher to build and implement the most appropriate comparative research design – the latter broadly defined as any research enterprise that comprises at least two ‘cases’ or observations. On the one hand, the course will cover a few fundamental upstream … Continue reading Comparative Research Designs

Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA): Performing Basic and Advanced Analyses using R
Radboud University Houtlaan 4, Nijmegen, NetherlandsThis is a methodological course on set-theoretic methods for the social sciences. While the spectrum of set-theoretic methods is broad, including techniques such as Mill’s methods or typological theory, this course primarily focuses on Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA). Invented by Charles Ragin , this technique is still undergoing modifications, improvements, and ramifications with applications in … Continue reading Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA): Performing Basic and Advanced Analyses using R
