Cross Case Analysis

Filipino families commonly have members beyond the nuclear family structure who are usual sources of mutual support, protection and interdependence for the family. Among these are grandparents who are valuable sources of support including childcare. Using multiple case study approach with cross-case analysis, the circumstances of seven Filipino grandparents raising grandchildren were examined. Their extrinsic reasons for taking custody over their grandchildren include parental employment, parents having new families, lack of basic parenting skills, substance abuse, teenage pregnancy, unstable home environment and domestic violence, child abuse and negligence, parental imprisonment, and financial incapability of the parents to raise the child; while the intrinsic reason being the grandparent’s need for home companionship. Filipino grandparents’ reasons for taking grandchild custody were found to be consistent with other grandparents around the world who also took custody of their grandchildren.

The Impact

The benefits of informal physical activity during recovery from childhood cancer have rarely been investigated. This study adopted a multiple case study approach to explore the impact of recreational cycling on childhood cancer survivors’ experiences of well- and ill-being. Three semistructured interviews were conducted over a 3-month period with four survivors to explore their experiences of physical, psychological, and social well- and ill-being. Within-case analysis followed by cross-case analysis identified three themes that captured their well- and ill-being experiences with recreational cycling and cancer: (a) cultivating feelings and emotions, (b) experiencing physical changes, and (c) encountering positive and negative social interactions. The results from this study show that recreational cycling may be a useful adjunct to conventional treatments for the self-management of multiple domains of well- and ill-being during recovery from childhood cancer.

This qualitative study explored the moral aspects of learners’ “encounters with unfamiliarity” in their everyday experiences. The encounter with unfamiliarity, as a basic phenomenon within the conceptual framework of embodied familiarization, was investigated using a multiple case study approach (Stake, 2006). Findings from this study are presented first as brief case narratives and second as themes based on a cross-case analysis. Themes of the study point to the nature and significance of the encounter as a part of learning, often as an invitation with a kind of moral significance that called participants to learn, or not learn, in particular ways. Moreover, much of the learning described in participants’ accounts was itself a kind of moral action, enacted in response to the significance of the moral call to learn initiated by the encounter.

Cross Case Analysis

This study investigates a special kind of corporate ventures, so called spin-along ventures, and their motivations to internationalise early. Insights are built from a multiple case study approach, investigating the spin-along program of Telekom Innovation Laboratories (T-Labs). Our results show that early internationalisation can avoid or reduce challenges that spin-alongs face when entering the domestic market. Four major motivations for early internationalisation could be identified: (1) avoid termination based on the parent's perceived threat of cannibalisation of existing products, (2) enable a venture's collaboration with competitors, (3) overcome restrictions of parental assets in the domestic market, and (4) address markets that offer greater chances for success than the domestic market does. Based on our findings we derive concrete implications for practitioners and academics in the field of innovation management.

Successes And Failures

The previous chapters have included a comprehensive discussion of general issues concerning e-partnership management from both technology and people perspectives, and, continuing this theme, this chapter presents extended and systematic multiple case studies which allow a more profound exploration of the way in which companies have partnered in e-business. It also contains an in-depth examination of specific issues and problems raised in e-partnerships. The cases selected for the case studies represent a broad range of interests, from big brand dotcoms like Yahoo! and Google to a small manufacturer that has embraced e-business and e-partnership technologies and practices. The case studies are followed by a cross-case analysis of the key issues in relation to the development of e-partnerships. Key successful factors are identified from the successful cases, along with the hard lessons learned from failure.

The Moment

Anti-Black racism is often overlooked in predominantly White spaces such as psychotherapy. This pervasive disregard and dehumanization reflects the perpetuation of ongoing racial trauma that can influence the psychological health of Black people seeking psychotherapy. Therapists, therefore, ought to be equipped and comfortable to have conversations about anti-Blackness and anti-Black racism in sessions, though evidence suggests they are often uncomfortable discussing race and racism in practice. To understand therapists’ comfort when clients discuss anti-Black racism, we used a multiple case study approach to interview five practicing clinicians (2 White, 2 Black, 1 biracial Asian and White). Within-case analysis elicited a sense of participants’ personal experiences of being comfortable, and at times less so, when clients discussed having endured anti-Black racism. Cross-case analysis led to the identification of four themes: (a) Beyond Acknowledgement, (b) Drawing Personal Awareness into the Moment, (c) Engaging with One’s Own Emotional Responses, and (d) I Am versus I Should: Proactive and Reactive Comfort. These findings are discussed within the scope of multicultural competence, multicultural orientation, and the value of cultural comfort when clients’ discuss anti-Black racism.

The goal of this chapter is a qualitative analysis of the research models and the hypotheses developed in Chapter 4. Firstly, the case study research method, for both single and multiple case study research, is introduced. Then, the four case studies conducted are presented in detail, including the respective case background, the BPS initiative, as well as reflections on the respective BPS value creation. Finally, a cross-case analysis is presented in which the authors discuss the cases against the background of the research models developed in Chapter 4 and corroborate, respectively falsify the research hypotheses.

Teachers’ perceptions of the Consulting Teacher Model in Albemarle County, Virginia were examined. Data collected from five consulting teachers and ten client teachers were utilized in a case study approach to describe five professional development clusters—each consisting of one consulting teacher and two client teachers. Five themes emerged from a cross-case analysis: receptivity to assistance, value of collegiality, viability of the role, consulting teacher as change agent, and teacher empowerment. Consulting teachers helped client teachers grow professionally and promoted different perspectives on teaching in the areas of mathematics, language arts, and special education. Of all the benefits of the Consulting Teacher Model, collaboration was viewed as the most rewarding.
