classify_term_fiss: Classify each condition of an intermediate term as core or...

In ThSQCA: Threshold-Sweep QCA

Classify each condition of an intermediate term as core or peripheral

Description

The term is compared with each source parsimonious solution by nested_core_conditions(). When there are several source solutions (tied parsimonious solutions from which QCA derived the same intermediate solution), a condition is core only if it is core relative to every one of them. A condition whose polarity differs across the source solutions can therefore never be core (the safeguard introduced in version 2.0.5).

Usage

classify_term_fiss(interm_term, source_models, conditions)

Arguments

interm_term	Character. A single intermediate-solution term.
source_models	List of character vectors, one per source parsimonious solution.
conditions	Character vector of all condition names.

Value

Data frame with columns condition, status ("present", "absent", "dontcare") and type ("core", "peripheral", "dontcare"). Attribute "not_nested": integer indices of the source solutions that have no term contained in interm_term.
