SINGLE SUBJECT

EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH

QUIZ

 1. State the simple size for single-subject

experimental design?

Single-subject experimental designs are

applied when the sample size is one or when a
number of individuals are considered to be
one group.

2. Single-subject experimental design are typically used to

These designs are used to study behavior

change in response to treatment

3. In single-subject experimental designs, the

nontreatment and treatment phase are represented
by

The nontreatment phase is represented by A.

The treatment phase is represented by B.

4. What is the key to generalizability in singlesubject experimental designs?

Replication is the key to generalizability in

single-subject designs

5. Only one variable at a time should be manipulated

The above statement represented

Single-variable rule

6. List 2 design that relate to A-B-A Withdrawal

Design.

-A-B design
-Additive design

7. Describe, what is A-B design?

AB design is :-baseline measurement (0) are made repeatedly

until stability is established
-then introduce the treatment(x)
-and multiple measurements are made during
treatment

8. Give an example to describe AB design.

Use symbol to describe it.

9. Describe, what is A-B-A design?

A-B-A design is:-a second baseline phase to the A-B

design
-which makes internal validity superior to
the A-B-A design

10. Give an example to describe A-B-A design. Use

symbol to describe it.

11.Explain the design constructed for A B A B

design?

Addition at second treatment, which is A B A

design + treatment

12.What are the advantage of A B A B design?

-Great strengthen of the conclusion by

demonstrate 2 treatment
-very convincing evidence

13.State the reason why Multiple Baseline Design

are used?

-It used when it is not possible to withdraw

treatment
-Treatment can be withdraw but the effects of
treatment carry over other phase.

14.State 3 basic type of multiple baseline

design

-Across subject
-Across behavior
-Across setting design

15.Why alternating treatment design is

attractive to investigator?

-Baseline phase and withdrawal are not

necessary
-Number of treatment can be studied
quickly and efficiently.

16. Typically data analysis in single subject

research is based on ?

Visual inspection and analysis of a graphic

presentation of result.

17. What is the primary criterion of effectiveness?

Clinical significance

18. Replication is serve to established the

generalizability of findings by?

Providing data about participant and setting

to which result are applicable

19. List all type of replication.

1. Direct replication
2. Systematic replication
3. Replication

20.what is the process of replication when it

includes the number of participant with the same
problem at the same location and same time?

simultaneous replication
