Functions for Set-Theoretic Multi-Method Research and Advanced QCA

Description

This initiated as a package companion to the book by C. Q. Schneider and C. Wagemann "Set-Theoretic Methods for the Social Sciences", Cambridge University Press. It has now grown to include functions for performing set-theoretic multi-method research (Schneider 2023, Schneider and Rohlfing 2013), QCA for clustered data (Garcia-Castro and Arino 2013), theory evaluation, Enhanced Standard Analysis, QCA Radar Charts, indirect calibration, robustness tests (Oana and Schneider - 2021) etc.. Additionally it includes data to replicate the examples in the book by Oana, I.E, C. Q. Schneider, and E. Thomann. Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) using R: A Gentle Introduction. Cambridge University Press and C. Q. Schneider and C. Wagemann "Set Theoretic Methods for the Social Sciences", 2021, Cambridge University Press.

The package contains functions to perform set-theoretic multi-method research, theory evaluation, QCA for clustered data, Enhanced Standard Analyses, indirect calibration, calculate parameters of fit and produce XY plots and QCA Radar Charts, perform robustness tests, etc.. Furthermore, it contains all the data used in the Schneider and Wagemann (2012) and Oana, Schneider, and Thomann (2021) books.
