For this Assignment, you are to critically evaluate the quality of a single subject research study
using the information provided in your reading for this week. Select a single subject research
study from the Kaplan Library on a topic of interest to you. Be sure it is not the same study that
you used in any of the Discussions in this class, and be sure it was published in the past 10
years. First, briefly summarize the study for the class (subjects, method, results, conclusions,
etc.). Then, using the Horner et al. (2005) article, provide a detailed discussion of whether or
not the study meets each element of all seven criteria given for a quality single subject
research study. Use Table 1 on p. 174 of the Horner et al. (2005) article to organize your paper.
Discuss one element at a time: there are seven major headings and 21 bullet points in Table 1,
so your paper should have seven section headings, with each section containing the same
number of paragraphs as there are bullet points for that section in Table 1.
In your paper, be sure to provide a clear determination of the following:
1. The full-text citation to your article
2. A discussion of all the criteria of a quality single subject study that were described in the
article from your reading this week and whether or not your study meets these criteria.
3. Provide a clear rationale as to why the study meets quality standards for each of the
criteria listed above, with sufficient references and citations to the text to support your
assertions
