Single-case experimental designs: Reflections on conduct and analysis

In this editorial discussion we reflect on the issues addressed by, and arising from, the papers in this Special Issue on Single Case Experimental Design (SCED) study methodology. We identify areas of consensus and disagreement regarding the conduct and analysis of SCED studies. Despite the long his...
