Civic crowdfunding: A new opportunity for local governments
2021
Abstract In civic crowdfunding, local communities are asked to financially contribute to projects aimed at the regeneration of an area. Usually a local government acts as a co-funder. This paper employs a fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis to discover which conditions are combined and may result in the collection of a significant amount of funds. Five conditions were selected: the nature of project, the number of backers, the number of rewards, the percentage of backers that did not require a reward and the percentage of rewards not required during the fundraising campaign. The study used a sample of 40 Italian successful civic crowdfunding rounds sponsored and match-funded by a loc…
Exploring the relationship between co-creation and satisfaction using QCA
2016
Abstract Customer behavior is one of the key components of value co-creation. Several authors believe that co-creation generates satisfaction. However, few studies exist that focus on that relationship. This study explores the relationship between value co-creation and customer satisfaction in spa services through a fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA). QCA analysis allows exploring the relations between the variables. The main contribution of this article is going beyond identifying the concrete co-creation variables that relate to satisfaction. The sample consists of hotel clients that use the spa service.
Key factors of information management for crowdfunding investor satisfaction
2021
Abstract Crowdlending platforms are becoming increasingly important as a collective financing mechanism for entrepreneurs and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), especially those at an early stage. This study, which is based on a survey of investors on a Spanish crowdlending platform, uses fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) to examine investor satisfaction with crowdlending platforms. Specifically, the study examines communication policies and the quality of the investor experience based on the information provided by these platforms. The value of this article lies in its examination of the antecedents of crowdlending investor satisfaction. The analysis shows that the…

C2C interactions creating value in the Route of Santiago
2016
The role of interaction between customers (customer-to-customer; C2C) is a key factor when extracting value from a touristic experience. Several studies incorporate quantitative and qualitative aspects referring to interactions and can provide a holistic view about C2C experiences, being therefore more capable of predicting the effects of C2C interaction on customer behavior. This study analyzes C2C interactions in backpackers’ experience and their effect on the cruise experience and vacation satisfaction. The study uses fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) to explore a causal relationship with dichotomous outcomes, both the presence and the absence of the variables. The study…

Nuevas herramientas para promover la reutilización del agua regenerada: Un enfoque basado en la Economía Circular y el Pago por los Servicios Ambient…
2022
Las Estaciones Depuradoras de Aguas Residuales (EDARs) son una infraestructura necesaria dentro del ciclo del agua y de la gestión de los recursos hídricos, asegurando la correcta gestión de las aguas residuales, así como su vuelta al ecosistema. Comúnmente se ha considerado a la EDAR como el “punto final” del agua residual, donde el agua depurada se descarga en las masas de agua receptoras. Sin embargo, la posibilidad de utilizar ese caudal como fuente de agua en zonas con desequilibrios hídricos se convierte en una opción cada vez más defendida. La reutilización es una solución efectiva ante los desequilibrios hídricos, permitiendo que la EDAR sea considerada como fuente de agua no conven…
El papel de los ayuntamientos frente a los procesos de exclusión en el medio rural. Estudio cualitativo comparativo en la Comunitat Valenciana.
2016
Esta tesis doctoral tiene por objetivo el análisis de la acción municipal frente a los procesos de exclusión social en el medio rural. Para ello se diseñó y llevó a cabo una investigación cualitativa, de naturaleza interdisciplinar, analizando como casos de estudio 30 municipios rurales de la Comunitat Valenciana. El marco teórico se nutre de aportaciones procedentes de distintas disciplinas sociales como son Sociología, Geografía, Trabajo Social y Ciencia Política para describir el conocimiento existente sobre el objeto de investigación y contribuir al diseño de la misma con marcos analíticos estructurales sobre los procesos de exclusión en el medio rural. En este sentido, a partir de las …
Strategic renewal : Can it be done profitably?
2022
Industry transformation requires strategic renewal at the level of individual firms. Executives then face the dilemma of choosing renewal paths in the face of uncertainty over the competitive environment of the future, and hence the profitability of potential strategies. This dilemma motivates us to study industry transformation from the perspective of strategic renewal among 208 large firms in the global pulp and paper industry. The findings of our qualitative comparative analysis show that only a minority of firms in our sample succeeded in profitable proactive renewal. Content-wise, there were similarities in the pursued strategies over the wider population, but only a few maintained sup…
Predictores emocionales y de personalidad que infl uyen en la aparición de las quejas somáticas en niños y en adultos
2019
Personality and emotional factors may be contributing to the emergence of somatic complaints. The purpose of this study was to analyse the combined contribution of emotional awareness, moods and personality to somatic complaints in children and adults. Method: Participants were 1,476 children (M= 9.90 years, SD= 1.27, 52.10% girls) and 940 adults (M= 32.30 years, SD= 11.62, 64% women) who were administered self-reports. Analysis was performed using fuzzy qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA), an analytical technique that enables in-depth analysis of how a series of causal conditions contribute to a given outcome. Results: Emotional awareness, moods and personality account for 59% of high…
