Sintesi	The Adaptive Multiple Baseline Design is a single-case experimental design that applies the standard multiple baseline logic — staggering intervention onset across two or more tiers (behaviors, settings, or participants) — but allows phase-change decisions to be guided by ongoing data review rather than fixed, pre-specified schedules. This flexibility makes the design more responsive to participant variability while preserving the core replication logic that supports causal inference.	The AB design is the simplest single-subject experimental design, consisting of two sequential phases: a baseline phase (A) in which the target behavior is observed under natural conditions without intervention, followed by an intervention phase (B) in which the treatment or manipulation is introduced. Changes in the behavior's level, trend, or variability between phases are used to infer the effect of the intervention on the individual participant.
