Single-blind ABAB design
The single-blind ABAB design is a single-case experimental approach that sequences two baseline phases (A) and two intervention phases (B) to demonstrate experimental control over a target behavior, while keeping one party — typically the outcome assessor or the participant — unaware of current phase assignment. This blinding procedure reduces observer bias or demand characteristics, strengthening the internal validity of the reversal logic.
