Tiivistelmä	The Blocked ABA Design is a single-subject experimental approach that combines the classic ABA reversal logic (baseline, intervention, withdrawal) with block-based session organization to control for time-related or contextual nuisance variation. By grouping observation sessions into blocks — such as days, weeks, or settings — and ensuring phase transitions align to block boundaries, the design isolates the effect of an intervention on an individual participant's repeated behavior measures more rigorously than an unblocked ABA.	The Blocked AB Design applies the logic of randomized block experimental design to the classic single-subject AB framework. Observation sessions are organized into blocks — matched sets of time points or contextual units — and the assignment of baseline (A) and treatment (B) phases is randomized within each block. This controls for nuisance time-based variability while preserving the interpretive simplicity of the fundamental two-phase single-case structure.
