Exam 7: Analyzing Data When You Are Evaluating a Single Client

In the upper two standard deviation approach, when you employ SPSS to compute the standard deviation of a set of scores, the way to determine whether your treatment mean is significantly better than the baseline mean is:

Not all evaluative researchers have the luxury of measuring the client on the target behavior or problem before treatment begins. This weakness can be dealt with by measuring the client several times during the first treatment period, followed by a change in the treatment while continuing to measure the client's target behavior or problem repeatedly during the second treatment period.

Reporting the findings for the binomial test for dichotomous data with the AB design requires:

The Standard deviation approach is an approach to the examination of data from the group design.

It is not possible to engage in any form of statistical analysis of data, by measuring a single client one time before treatment and one time at the end of treatment.

One of the two cautions about using the standard deviation approach with the AB design is that:

When the binomial test is employed to compare the treatment recordings to the proportion of baseline recordings, the statistical question is:

When you present the findings from your analysis, using the standard deviation approach when you have several baseline scores and several treatment scores you will need to report:

When you use binomial test for the AB Design and when the data are measured as a dichotomy the statistical question to be answered is whether the pattern of positive baseline recording is significantly different from the treatment pattern of positive recordings.

When you employ a specific treatment modality for a period of six weekly sessions, using a single-subject design, you will measure:

Please explain the rationale that, when you employ the BC design you engage in the same statistical analysis procedures as with the AB design, with a minor exception.

When an evaluative researcher begins the study with the AB design and adds a second treatment while continuing to measure client's behavior during the second treatment period, the researcher is employing:

In the ABAB design, there are:

When multiple treatments are used in the single-subject design, the first type of treatment is labeled A and the second treatment would be labeled as C and the third treatment would be labeled D and so forth.

The classic AB design:
