    We are pleased to offer our 10th edition of the workshop on Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) and fuzzy-set (fsQCA) set-theoretic methodologies. The workshop is aimed at benefiting a variety of scholars ranging from those who have no previous exposure to this methodological to those who have extensive experience and want to share new frontiers.

    Part I is aimed at participants without prior or with little experience with QCA-but everyone is welcome. We will provide a general overview of set theoretic methodologies and their conceptual logic, including introductions to the overall logic, crisp-set (csQCA) and fuzzy-set (fsQCA) approaches. It will close with a Q&A session that will allow attendees to ask questions of an expert panel.  No prior registration; we do recommend a list of pre-readings, which can be obtained by emailing Peer Fiss prior to the session (fiss@marshall.usc.edu).

    Part II (12:45 – 2:00): Roundtable Discussions of Submitted Proposals (proposal required)

    Part II provides the opportuinty for participants who are already using set theoretic methods in their current research to discuss their research and receive feedback on it. We will organize proposals by topic into several small-group roundtable forums. This will allow QCA panelists and author participants to interact and for authors to get consultation regarding their ongoing research projects.  This Part II roundtable workshop is open to all faculty and Ph.D students.  Yet, to attend Part II, you must submit a proposal for review by June 30, 2015.  Acceptance notices will be sent by July 18, 2015.
