  • after kkv the new methodology of qualitative Research
    World Politics, 2010
    Co-Authors: James Mahoney
    Abstract:

    This article discusses developments in the field of qualitative methodology since the publication of King, Keohane, and Verba's (KKV 's) Designing Social Inquiry . Three areas of the new methodology are examined: (1) process tracing and causal-process observations; (2) methods using set theory and logic; and (3) strategies for combining qualitative and Quantitative Research. In each of these areas, the article argues, the new literature encompasses KKV 's helpful insights while avoiding their most obvious missteps. Discussion focuses especially on contrasts between the kind of observations that are used in qualitative versus Quantitative Research, differences between regression-oriented approaches and those based on set theory and logic, and new approaches for bringing out complementarities between qualitative and Quantitative Research. The article concludes by discussing Research frontiers in the field of qualitative methodology.

  • the government finance database a common resource for Quantitative Research in public financial analysis
    2015
    Co-Authors: Kawika Pierson, Michael L Hand, Fred Thompson
    Abstract:

    Quantitative public financial management Research is limited by the absence of a common database for empirical analysis (Gill and Meier 2000). While the U.S. Census Bureau distributes government finance data that some scholars have utilized, the arduous process of collecting, interpreting, and organizing the data has led its adoption to be prohibitive and inconsistent. In this article we offer a single, coherent resource that contains all of the census data from 1967-2011, uses easy to understand natural-language variable names, and will be extended when new data is available.

  • the government finance database a common resource for Quantitative Research in public financial analysis
    PLOS ONE, 2015
    Co-Authors: Kawika Pierson, Michael L Hand, Fred Thompson
    Abstract:

    Quantitative public financial management Research focused on local governments is limited by the absence of a common database for empirical analysis. While the U.S. Census Bureau distributes government finance data that some scholars have utilized, the arduous process of collecting, interpreting, and organizing the data has led its adoption to be prohibitive and inconsistent. In this article we offer a single, coherent resource that contains all of the government financial data from 1967-2012, uses easy to understand natural-language variable names, and will be extended when new data is available.
