- Title
Systematisch comparatief case onderzoek en evaluatieonderzoek.
- Authors
Marx, Axel
- Abstract
The paper discusses the contribution of systematic comparative case research for evaluation research. The paper argues that systematic comparative case research is suitable to address 'why' questions for evaluation research because it aims to identify (configurations of) explanatory causal conditions and processes within a set of comparable cases. Systematic comparative case research consists of two components. On the one hand, the approach focuses on similarities and differences of explanatory conditions across cases. On the other hand, the approach focuses on the processes within each case to explain how explanatory conditions are linked to a certain outcome. The paper uses different published examples to illustrate the most defining characteristics of the approach.
