Sintesi	The double-blind multiple baseline design is a single-subject experimental design in which an intervention is introduced sequentially across two or more independent baselines — behaviors, individuals, or settings — while outcome assessors (and ideally participants) remain unaware of which baseline is currently in the intervention phase. The double-blind procedural overlay reduces measurement bias and demand characteristics, strengthening causal inference beyond what a standard multiple baseline design offers.	The ABA design is a single-subject experimental design that demonstrates experimental control through three sequential phases: a baseline phase (A1), an intervention phase (B), and a return-to-baseline withdrawal phase (A2). By removing the intervention in the final phase and observing whether behavior reverts toward baseline levels, researchers establish a functional relationship between the treatment and the target behavior for an individual participant.
