Single-Case Research Designs

Single-case research has played an important role in developing and evaluating interventions that are designed to alter a particular facet of human functioning. Now thoroughly updated in its third edition acclaimed author Alan E. Kazdin's <em>Single-Case Research Designs</em> provides a notable contrast to the quantitative methodology approach that pervades the biological and social sciences. While focusing on widely applicable methodologies for evaluating interventions--such as treatment or psychotherapy using applied behavior analysis--this revised edition also encompasses a broader range of research areas that utilize single-case designs demonstrating the relevance of this methodology to various disciplines from psychology and medicine to business and industry. This well-written clear and thoroughly updated text is ideal for researchers practitioners instructors and students alike.<br>
