Experimental Strategies

Assistance for the consumer in understanding Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) research strategies and technical aspects is provided. Various measures of behavior and reliability are discussed. Experimental strategies and variations of reversal and multiple baseline research designs are reviewed with particular attention given to experimental logic. It is felt if the consumer understands the principles guiding researchers, then accurate appraisal and useful applications of ABA research outcomes are likely.

There are basic philosophical and paradigmatic assumptions that guide scholarly research endeavors, including the methods used and the types of questions asked. Through this article, kinesiology faculty and students with interests in adapted physical activity are encouraged to understand the basic assumptions of applied behavior analysis (ABA) methodology for conducting, analyzing, and presenting research of high quality in this paradigm. The purposes of this viewpoint paper are to present information fundamental to understanding the assumptions undergirding research methodology in ABA, describe key aspects of single-subject research designs, and discuss common research designs and data-analysis strategies used in single-subject studies.
