Sammanfattning	The Pilot ABA Design is a small-scale single-subject experiment that applies the ABA reversal structure — baseline, intervention, withdrawal — to test the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effect of an intervention before committing to a full-scale study. It provides early evidence of whether the treatment produces a detectable change and whether the reversal is ethically and practically achievable.	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.
