摘要
定性比较分析(Qualitative Comparative Analysis)正在西方社会科学研究领域悄然兴起。表面上看这只是一种研究社会科学的技术性手段,但实质上它代表着一种全新的研究逻辑,可以作为传统的定性研究和定量研究的重要补充。定性比较分析的基本逻辑是:基于布尔代数原理,通过讨论集合间的隶属关系发掘多个案例所展现的普遍特征。它与传统的定量研究相比主要有三个差异:(1)聚焦研究结果变量和自变量之间的非对称性关系,突破了传统定量研究基于相关系数的对称性思维局限;(2)认为达到同样的结果可以有多条路径,而每条路径都是不同的相关因素组合,这突破了传统定量研究拘泥于单一模型验证独立变量显著性的思维套路;(3)以模糊集合代替对变量的精确性测量,使研究结论更加符合真实世界的要求和客观规律。结合经济管理学等领域的具体案例,文章还阐述了定性比较分析缘何可以成为传统定性和定量研究以外的第三种研究思想,并提出了该方法的研究局限和在经济管理学领域的应用展望。
