A solid, informative primer on single subject research methods. But If this methodology ever wishes to transcend the arena of research on children and developmentally disabled people, it must offer more diverse examples. It's one thing to say single subject research is applicable to organizational action research settings, but it's another thing to actually show someone doing it. I have the sinking feeling the authors scoured the literature to find such examples and returned home with an empty bushel basket. How can an educator recommend this methodology to students of adult learning when there are no examples of a researcher using it with non-developmentally disabled adults?
