“…Then, we pursued axial coding (Strauss and Corbin, 1990) by grouping codes into categories and trying to match patterns among the cases (Yin, 2009). First, we chose two independent researchers to group 180 items into each category and used a "confusion matrix" as a valid option for calculating inter-rater reliability (Marques and McCall, 2005). The total valid coding is 171, and TA (the true agreement rate) is 171/180 ¼ 95.0 percent, indicating high reliability.…”

Purpose Despite their crucial role in sustaining national economies, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are beset by the constraint of financing at better conditions. The purpose of this paper is to compare supply chain finance (SCF) solutions provided by commercial banks and financial service providers (FSPs) that help SMEs access financing. Design/methodology/approach This study looks at multiple case studies using in-depth interviews with focal firms (lenders) to answer the research questions. In-depth interviews were conducted with three Chinese FSPs and three commercial banks providing working capital to the same SMEs. The unit of analysis is SCF solutions that have made the companies competitive in the industry. Findings The case studies show that the acquisition of transaction information and business credit in SCF can reduce ex ante information asymmetry. SCF utilizing receivable transfers, closed-loop business, relational embeddedness, and a combination of outcome control and behavioral control can also reduce ex post information asymmetry. For these reasons, compared with commercial bank-dominated SCF, SCF adopted by FSPs in the supply chain can better reduce information asymmetry. Originality/value This study contributes to the emerging literature exploring the impact of SCF on SMEs accessing financing. In particular, this study provides supply chain management and operations insights on SCF and their consequent influence. Previous research has focused on the direct dyadic relationship between lenders and borrowers while neglecting supply chain effects. Uniquely, this study explores the different ways commercial banks and FSPs implement SCF solutions.

“…The inter-rater reliability rates for students' responses to the test item, interviews with teachers regarding time-axis fallay and their practices were %92, %89 and %91, respectively. These rates were over acceptable level of inter-rater level, which is being above %80 (Marques & McCall, 2005). The findings were presented after getting consensus between the coders.…”

This case study aimed to investigate whether mathematics teachers' instructional practices were effective in resolving eleventh grade students' intuitively-based misconceptions regarding time axis fallacy. The participants were three mathematics teachers from different high schools and their students. Students were administered a diagnostic test comprising questions related to intuitively-based misconceptions in probability. The test was administered before and after students received teachers' instructions for probability subject. Teachers were interviewed about their knowledge of students' difficulties and misconceptions. Teachers' instructions for probability were observed and videotaped. Content analysis method was used in the data analysis. Considering the findings, it was observed that teachers did not give emphasis on unfamiliar situations related to time axis fallacy. Comparing the test results, there was slight increase in the number of students who fell into time axis fallacy. Based on the findings, it can be asserted that practitioners should be aware of possible intuitively-based misconceptions in probability and organize their instructions accordingly.

“…For the purpose of validity and reliability, the researchers used the procedure of inter-rater reliability (reliability between examiners) as a strategy for strengthening the review. As stated in Marques and McCall (2005), in a qualitative study the findings are usually not represented in plain numbers. This type of study is regarded as less scientific and its findings are perceived in a more imponderable light.…”

In translation, the utterances delivered in the form of implicit meaning in Arabic are not necessarily retained in the same form in English which results in a reversal, with the form of implicit meaning being translated into explicit meaning. This study aims to identify the forms of implicit meaning in the book entitled Rihlah Ibn Battutah, explore the influence of culture on this translation, and analyse the strategies used by the translator to deal with the difficulties of translating implicit meaning. The qualitative methodology was adopted using the case study and textual analysis methods based on the approach proposed by Klaudy and Karoly (2005), and Pym (2004). Data analysis was carried out using the ATLAS.ti software. The results show that explicitation in translation is not only driven by cultural factors in general, but is also significantly influenced by other factors that include religion, Arabic Rhetorical Sciences (Balāghah), lexicogrammatical and pragmatic dimensions, communicative preferences, and language politeness. It is hopeful that this study will spark interest in the study on the explicitation strategy in the field of translation.
