"This volume represents no less than a quantum leap in the application of single-case designs to the rehabilitation setting. With crisp writing and meticulous scholarship, Tate and Perdices have given us an instant classic on an increasingly important route to evidence-based practice. They unpack the confusing terminology, explain all of the design variations, and offer a valuable ten-step approach to implementation. This book will fill a much-needed niche in clinics, classrooms, and laboratories the world over." - Tessa Hart, Moss Rehabilitation Research Institute, USA
"Tate and Perdices have written a comprehensive, crystal clear guide for how to conduct and analyze SCED studies specific to the field of neurorehabilitation. This book will be my go to resource for designing and evaluating SCED studies and teaching this methodology to my students. Without a doubt, this text will elevate the evidence-base for interventions designed to improve the lives of people affected by neurological disease and injury." - McKay Moore Sohlberg, University of Oregon, USA
"Several ingredients make this book a valuable guideline for applied researchers: advice on enhancing internal and external validity when planning and conducting studies that can contribute to identifying evidence-based practices, overview of the myriad of data analytical options, and suggestions for comprehensive reporting. The practical approach is boosted by the integration of all these aspects in a ten-step illustration." - Rumen Manolov, University of Barcelona, Spain
"Tate and Perdices have produced a text that captures their years of experience and expertise, and they clearly set the standard for applying single-case experimental designs in the context of neuropsychological rehabilitation. The text provides in-depth discussion of scientific methodology that informs clinical research, but goes beyond that to provide practical advice and direct guidance that will allow clinicians to evaluate the effectiveness of their treatments and inform their future practice. This work is a unique contribution to the field for scientist-practitioners." - Keith Cicerone, JFK Johnson Rehabilitation Institute, USA
