This article describes and illustrates with two case studies a relatively novel form of the multiple-baseline design called the changing criterion design, and suggests target behaviors and circumstances for which the design might be useful.
Abstract
This article describes and illustrates with two case studies a relatively novel form of the multiple-baseline design called the changing criterion design. It also presents the design's formal requirements, and suggests target behaviors and circumstances for which the design might be useful.

Examples of different single-case designs actually employed in applied clinical research are presented and discussed and practical problems arising during the course of research are highlighted.

207 Citations1974Jack Michael
It is seen that it is not possible to effect adequate levels of experimental control with much human applied research, and that in such cases a significance test would be quite valuable as a judgemental aid, both of which points are considered to be essentially incorrect, and if accepted, potentially harmful.

186 Citations1977Richard R. Jones, Russell S. Vaught +1 more
A time-series method is presented, nontechnically, for analysis of data generated in individual-subject operant studies, and is recommended as a supplement to visual analysis of behavior change in reversal or multiple-baseline experiments.

Three basic multiple baseline designs were used to investigate the effects of systematic reinforcement and punishment procedures in the classroom and at home and marked increases in the behaviors were observed at the points where the contingency was applied.

In three studies, reinforcing low rates of responding reduced inappropriate behaviors and successively decreasing DRL limits were used to reduce off-task verbalizations of an entire high school business class.

The fixed effects ANOVA procedure utilized by Gentile, Roden, and Klein (1972) for single subjects is found inappropriate and time series analysis that takes serial correlation effects into account is recommended.
