摘要
Traditional variable-centred analyses of marketing data are not well suited to the discovery of logical relationships between combinations of factors. This paper suggests that we may need to rethink what we mean by a 'case' and to view cases as configurations of characteristics rather than units of analysis. The processes of using combinatorial logic and fuzzy logic are explained. A new piece of software is introduced and applied to a dataset so that traditional analysis and fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis results can be compared.
