What is it?
in depth analysis of individual, group or event
What is a Non-equivalent control group design
Has no DV but has a post-test
Does it explain individual behaviour?
A: Baseline or control period
B: exposure to IV manipulation
A: Removal of IV

Each participant is treated and examined individually
Would a single subject design be used and why?
unlikely because there is usually no attempted at experimental rigor.
Procedure of Non-equivalent
Control:
No IV -> Post-test
Experimental:
IV -> Post test
What does it tell us?
Tells us about the average behaviour
Whats are some other Reversal design structures?
AAABAAA
ABAB
ABCAD
What type of measure is used in small N
a report measure
Name two of four problems
1. Objectivity
2. Reliability/ validity
3. No comparison group
4. No control over extraneous factors
Procedure of control group design
Control:
DV1->DV2 -> No IV -> DV3 -> DV4
Experimental:
DV1 -> DV2 -> IV -> DV3 -> DV4
