Përmbledhja	The Adaptive ABAB Design is a single-subject experimental methodology that extends the classic ABAB reversal design by incorporating data-driven, prospective decision rules to determine when to transition between baseline (A) and intervention (B) phases. Rather than fixing phase lengths in advance, the researcher uses pre-specified criteria — such as stability thresholds, slope targets, or effect-size benchmarks — to guide each phase change, improving both experimental control and clinical responsiveness.	Interrupted Time Series analysis is a quasi-experimental design that estimates the effect of a single, well-dated intervention by comparing the trajectory of an outcome before and after it occurs. Formalised as segmented regression by Wagner and colleagues (2002) and popularised as a public-health evaluation tutorial by Bernal, Cummins and Gasparrini (2017), it separates the intervention's impact into a change in level and a change in slope.
