Abstract

Abstract Multiple‐baseline designs are a type of single‐case design used to study treatment effects across multiple participants, multiple behaviors, or multiple settings. Baselines are established by repeated observation. Interventions are then implemented at different times for the different participants, behaviors, or settings. Effects are demonstrated when changes are observed that coincide with the interventions.
