1. NB: Here we do not use QCA (Boolean) notation: '+' does not mean 'or', but rather 'and'.
2. In the language of Realistic Evaluation, they are all "outcomes".
3. For reasons of space we must omit configurations concerning the "outcome" result variable.
4. In a second step of the presented research, we have calculated the solutions with ordinal data using TOSMANA software (see also Cronqvist and Berg-Schlosser, in this volume). The respective results will be presented in a subsequent paper yet to be published.
