Explain the basic elements of a multiple baseline across subjects design including selection of subject(s), dependent variable(s), and how the dependent and independent variables are implemented.

Fill in the blank(s) with the appropriate word(s).


Suggested answer points:Three subjects are selected who demonstrate the same target behavior in the same settings. Baseline data are collected on all three subjects. As subject 1 receives intervention, subjects 2 and 3 continue in baseline phase. When subject 1 reaches criterion performance of the target behavior, then the independent variable is implemented with subject 2. The process is repeated until subject 3 also receives the independent variable. The dependent and independent variables are the same for each subject.
