This book is a practical resource designed for clinicians,
researchers, and advanced students who wish to learn about
single-case research designs. It covers the theoretical and
methodological underpinnings of single-case designs, as well as
their practical application in the clinical and research
neurorehabilitation setting. The book briefly traces the history of
single-case experimental designs (SCEDs); outlines important
considerations in understanding and planning a scientifically
rigorous single-case study, including internal and external
validity; describes prototypical single-case designs
(withdrawal-reversal designs and the medical N-of-1 trial,
multiple-baseline designs, alternating-treatments designs, and
changing-criterion designs) and required features to meet evidence
standards, threats to internal validity, and strategies to address
them; addresses data evaluation, covering visual analysis of
graphed data, statistical techniques, and clinical significance;
and provides a practical ten-step procedure for implementing
single-case methods. Each chapter includes detailed illustrative
examples from the neurorehabilitation literature. Novel features
include: A focus on the neurorehabilitation setting, which is
particularly suitable for single-case designs because of the
complex and often unique presentation of many patients/clients. A
practical approach to the planning, implementation, data analysis,
and reporting of single-case designs. An appendix providing a
detailed summary of many recently published SCEDs in representative
domains in the neurorehabilitation field, covering basic and
instrumental activities of daily living, challenging behaviours,
disorders of communication and cognition, mood and emotional
functions, and motor-sensory disabilities. It is valuable reading
for clinicians and researchers in several disciplines working in
rehabilitation, including clinical and neuropsychology, education,
language and speech pathology, occupational therapy, and physical
therapy. It is also an essential resource for advanced students in
these fields who need a textbook for specialised courses on
research methodology and use of single-case design in applied
clinical and research settings.
