PSYB01H3 Chapter 11: Chapter 11 - Detailed
Document Summary
Chapter 11 single case, quasi-experimental and developmental research. Single case experimental designs have traditionally been called single-subject designs, but now the terms used are single case and single participant. Single case experiments were developed from a need to determine whether an experimental manipulation had an affect on a single research participant. In a single case deign, the subject"s behavior is measured over time during a baseline control period. In multiple baseline across subjects, the behavior of several subjects is measured over time; for each subject, though, the manipulation is introduced at a different point in time. In multiple baseline across behaviors, several different behaviors of a single- subject are measured over time. At different times, the same manipulation is applied to each of the behaviors. There must be some sort of comparison condition to enable you to interpret your results.
