সারসংক্ষেপ	The Pragmatic AB Design is a single-case experimental design that collects repeated measurements of one individual or unit across two consecutive phases: a baseline phase (A) with no intervention, followed by an intervention phase (B). Deployed in real-world, clinically feasible conditions rather than tightly controlled laboratory settings, it is widely used in behavioral health, rehabilitation, education, and applied psychology to generate actionable evidence about individual-level treatment effects.	The ABAB design is a single-subject experimental methodology that establishes causal control by repeatedly introducing and removing an intervention. A baseline phase (A) is followed by an intervention phase (B), then a return to baseline (A), and a second intervention phase (B), allowing the researcher to demonstrate that observed behavior changes are produced by the intervention rather than by coincidental factors.
