University recognition of a graduate student union
Original data used by Caren and Panofsky (2005), and reanalysed by Ragin and Strand (2008).
data(RS)
A data frame containing 17 cases and the following 6 columns:
P |
Public university |
E |
Support of elite allies |
A |
National union affiliation |
S |
Strike or a strike threat |
EBA |
E happens before A |
REC |
Union recognition |
The causal conditions are P, E, A and S.
All of them are binary crisp with two values: 0 = No and 1 = Yes.
The column EBA is not a causal condition, specifying in which case the
causal condition E happens before the causal condition A. It has
two values (0 = No and 1 = Yes) plus the placeholder "-"
to signal a “don't care”.
The outcome is the union recognition EBA, also binary crisp with two values:
0 = No and 1 = Yes.
