- Designing Research With Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA): Approaches, Challenges, and Tools (2020, methodology): “QCA has different uses, both descriptive and explanatory, which include summarizing data, creating typologies, checking the coherence of subset relations, evaluating existing hypotheses, testing atheoretical conjectures, and developing new theories (Berg-Schlosser et al. 2009; Schneider and Wagemann”
- Standards of Good Practice in Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) and Fuzzy-Sets (2010, background): “We have followed a broadly shared understanding (Berg-Schlosser et al. 2008, Wagemann and Schneider 2009), namely that QCA should be perceived of both as a research approach and a data analysis technique.”
- Crisp-set qualitative comparative analysis (csQCA) and model specification: Benchmarks for future csQCA applications (2010, background): “…to systematically compare differences and similarities of confi gurations of conditions between a set of cases and enables researchers to inductively explore data and develop explanatory models (Berg-Schlosser et al., 2009; Ragin, 1987, 1994, 2000, 2004; Rihoux, 2008; Rihoux & Ragin, 2009).”
- The Comparative Advantages of fsQCA and Regression Analysis for Moderately Large-N Analyses (2012, background): “Because of these three characteristics, configurational approaches relax a series of conventional quantitative assumptions: permanent causality, uniform causal effects, unit homogeneity, additivity, and causal symmetry (Berg-Schlosser et al. 2009).”
- Qualitative Comparative Analysis in Critical Perspective (2014, background): “(For didactic explications see, variously, Berg-Schlosser et al. 2009; Ragin 2000, 2008a, 2008b, 2009; Rihoux and Grimm 2006; Rihoux and Ragin 2009).”
