Zusammenfassung	The single-blind ABA design combines the three-phase reversal logic of the ABA single-subject design — baseline (A1), intervention (B), and withdrawal (A2) — with single-blind masking, in which outcome assessors are kept unaware of the current phase or treatment condition while the participant and intervention team remain aware. This blinding reduces observer bias in behavioral measurement across the three phases.	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.
