Σύνοψη	A blocked multiple baseline design is a single-subject experimental approach that combines the logic of the multiple baseline design with blocking — the systematic grouping of participants, behaviors, or settings into matched sets — to reduce extraneous variability and strengthen causal inference. The intervention is introduced in a staggered sequence across baselines within each block, demonstrating experimental control through replication within and across blocks.	Single-subject experimental design (SSED) establishes experimental control by repeatedly measuring one individual (or a small number of individuals) across baseline and intervention phases, using the participant as their own control. Instead of comparing groups, it compares the participant's own behavior across conditions over time. Widely used in applied behavior analysis, special education, rehabilitation, and clinical psychology, SSED allows causal inference from small or unique samples where group designs are impractical.
