Zusammenfassung	A double-blind single-subject experimental design applies systematic masking — concealing treatment assignment from both the participant and the outcome assessor — within a within-person repeated-measures framework. It is used when researchers need strong causal inference about an intervention's effect on a single individual while guarding against placebo responses and observer bias. Particularly prominent in pharmacological, behavioral, and clinical rehabilitation research.	The multiple baseline design is a single-subject experimental design that demonstrates functional control by introducing an intervention at staggered time points across two or more baselines — typically across different behaviors, individuals, or settings. Because no withdrawal of treatment is required, it is especially suitable when the target behavior is irreversible or when removing an effective intervention would be unethical.
