Muhtasari	A blocked multiple baseline design is a single-subject experimental approach that combines the logic of the multiple baseline design with blocking — the systematic grouping of participants, behaviors, or settings into matched sets — to reduce extraneous variability and strengthen causal inference. The intervention is introduced in a staggered sequence across baselines within each block, demonstrating experimental control through replication within and across blocks.	The ABAB design is a single-subject experimental methodology that establishes causal control by repeatedly introducing and removing an intervention. A baseline phase (A) is followed by an intervention phase (B), then a return to baseline (A), and a second intervention phase (B), allowing the researcher to demonstrate that observed behavior changes are produced by the intervention rather than by coincidental factors.
