Why would an ABA design not be appropriate for behavioral (as opposed to drug) treatment for depression?

What will be an ideal response?


An ABA design presupposes that at the second baseline phase (i.e., the second A phase), the individual's behavior will return to the way it was before the treatment. In behavioral treatment for depression, if therapy is successful, the person will not return to his or her original depressed state. Thus, an ABA design will not be appropriate.
