| What is a strength of single case design compared to group designs? A.. Less participants means it is easier to comprehend the outcomes. B. SCD addresses learner's idiosyncrasies C. SCD "drowns out" learner's idiosyncrasies D. SCD is great for a | SCD addresses learner's idiosyncrasies |
| Alex (a BCBA) is supporting a 5th grade classroom. She helps the team put a Functional Communication Training intervention in place to reduce the amount of property destruction Terry engages in. The Functional Communication Training intervention is the: | Independent variable |

| The three elements of baseline logic | Prediction Verification Replication |
| _________________ designs randomly select a pool of subjects from the relevant population, divides the subjects into experimental and control groups, pretest, applies the IV to the experimental group, and posttest | Group |
| Baseline logic is known as demonstrating _____________ relations | Functional |
| __________________ is the degree to which a study's results are generalizable to other subjects, settings, and/or behaviors | External Validity |
| _________________ is the extent to which an experiment shows convincingly that changes in behavior are a function of the IV and not the result of uncontrolled or unknown variables | Internal validity |
| Irreversibility and removing an effective IV that can bring up social, educational, and ethical issues are cons of the ____________ design | reversal design |
| _________________ is when multiple IVs are bundled into 1 program | treatment package |
