Assessing Generalization and the Single-Subject Strategies

Philip C. Kendall

University of Minnesota

Single-subject designs are useful tools to aid in the evaluation of the effectiveness of a treatment intervention. Unfortunately, within the single-subject strategy there can arise a question as to what is demonstrated-treatment control or a lack of generalization (transfer)? Toward the resolution of such an issue, both stimulus and response generalization are examined for several single-subject designs. It is suggested that the assessment of certain types of generalization for certain designs would not contradict a demonstration of treatment control. Such nonproblematic tests for generalization are suggested as a worthwhile addition to our evaluative armamentarium, and a methodology to conduct "generalization tests" is outlined.
