The assessment of consistency in single-case experiments: Beyond A-B-A-B designs

# metadata.dc.description.abstract[].value
Quality standards for single-case experimental designs (SCEDs) recommend inspecting six data aspects: level, trend, variability, overlap, immediacy, and consistency of data patterns. The data aspect consistency has long been neglected by visual and statistical analysts of SCEDs despite its importance for inferring a causal relationship. However, recently a first quantification has been proposed in the context of A-B-A-B designs, called CONsistency of DAta Patterns (CONDAP). In the current paper, we extend the existing CONDAP measure for assessing consistency in designs with more than two successive A-B elements (e.g., A-BA-B-A-B), multiple baseline designs, and changing criterion designs. We illustrate each quantification with published research.
