This section outlines the process through which the research project on the drivers of IFFs was developed, including the data used and some of the methodological choices involved. Most studies of IFFs are quantitative in nature, at the expense of accuracy and the detailed analysis of specific contexts. Recently, scholars have been stressing the importance of qualitative data and country-level analyses for the IFFs research agenda. To the best of our knowledge, this study is one of the first attempts to apply QCA to the subject of illicit financial flows. By using a research method rarely applied to this field, this study contributes to current efforts to shed light on the elusive phenomenon of trans-border financial crossings. While it does not pretend to be comprehensive, the study aims to demonstrate the usefulness of this approach when studying IFFs.

This study was conducted to evaluate the perceived discomfort and user preferences associated with the wearing of earplugs. Fifty subjects were tested under five different type8 of earplugs. Subject responses to a series of 7-interval, bi-polar scales and rankings were obtained. The bi-polar scales were reduced to a a single-number rating, or Comfort Index (CI). Nonparametric analysis of the CI indicated that pre-formed, plastic earplugs were perceived as causing more discomfort than user-molded earplugs. Nonparametric analyses differences among earplug designs insertion, and preferences. I NTRODUCT I ON Hearing protection devices (HPDs), especially earplugs, are a widely-used method of reducing the harmful effects of noise exposure. Unfortunate1 y, workers who must use earplugs sometimes complain of discomfort, caused by the stretching of the ear canal or the hardness of the earplug material (Berger, 1982). Industrial hearing audiometrists, OSHA inspectors, and industrial nurses) typically identify general discomfort as a major problem associated with earplugs (Royster and Holder, 1981). Quite simply, if earplugs cause discomfort, workers may wear them incorrectly or not at all, thereby eliminating o r reducing the potential protective benefit. Even though the earplug discomfort issue is prominent, very little research has been aimed at evaluating discomfort associated with earplugs or other types of HPDs (Flugrath and Tuberville, 1972; Damongeot, et al, 1981). Virtually no research has addressed the possible association between earplug besian and discomfort. conservation professionals (e.s., Research Pbiective The main research objective was to evaluate five different industrial earplug designs based on subjective, user-reported discomfort. A second objective was to compare user preferences of the five earplugs. of the rank data also indicated for discomfort, ease of earplug

Abstract This chapter is dedicated to the presentation of the applied research method. To this end, the decision to adopt the comparative method as an appropriate method of investigation to pursue the objective of the research is debated.

Abstract This chapter aims to clarify Barnard’s research methods. Barnard was a practitioner, not a professional researcher; Barnard repeatedly stated that he created his theory of organization and management from his experience and observation. However, he was able to publish The Functions of the Executive, which is sufficiently logical, systematic, and scientific. This is because Barnard constructed his theory on the basis of his own research methods. First, Barnard adopted participant observation as his research method; he played the dual role of an actor and an observer. It is essential to observe the reality as a participant because the reality is always changing through an actor’s action and reaction from the situation. Second, Barnard accumulated his experience and observation; he then classified them into three different types of knowledge: behavioral, personal, and formal. Third, Barnard shared the Hippocrates method with Henderson, composed of intuitive familiarity, knowledge, and theory. Barnard created and combined concepts from accumulated knowledge; he called a set of concepts a “conceptual scheme, ” which is regarded as being equivalent to a theory.

<p>(A) Example of two consecutive trials in the no eye movements (NEM) and the eye movements (EM) condition. Participants had to respond to the identity of the target letter pair “XO” or “OX”; “XO” required a left response, “OX” a right one. In the NEM condition, target and distractors (“YQ” or “QY”) were presented close to the fixation cross and were displayed for 100 ms, after which only the fixation cross remained on the screen. The next trial started 400 ms (RSI) after a response was given. In the EM condition, target and distractors were widely separated and remained on the screen until participants responded. In both conditions, target identity, and hence manual responses, changed randomly, while target location was structured according to a deterministic sequence. In the current example, target location 1 (above the fixation cross) was followed by target location 2 (right from the fixation cross). (B) Overview of the design, which was similar in the NEM and the EM condition. T = trained blocks, U = untrained blocks.</p>
