Abstract

Single-case research designs (SCRDs) are a vital tool for researchers and practitioners in counseling to evaluate intervention and treatment effectiveness. This content analysis reviews the application of SCRDs in counseling to highlight knowledge accrued and existing gaps in the literature. We evaluated the methodological design and reporting adherence against recommended guidelines to provide guidance for future research. We included 50 SCRDs published between 2015 and 2021 across 15 journals (42 reviewed). Content results showed several trends, strengths, and areas of improvement in counseling SCRDs. No studies completely met the What Works Clearinghouse (2022) design standards or Single-Case Reporting Guideline in Behavioural Interventions (SCRIBE) reporting standards, yet several indicators had high levels of adherence. We discuss how the experimental design process can be enhanced to improve the internal validity, ways to improve transparency in reporting SCRD results, and the importance of contextualizing SCRD methodology to the counseling field.

采用单一案例研究设计的心理咨询研究综述
单案例研究设计(SCRD)是心理咨询研究人员和从业人员评估干预和治疗效果的重要工具。本内容分析回顾了单病例研究设计在心理咨询中的应用,以突出文献中积累的知识和存在的差距。我们根据推荐指南对方法设计和报告遵循情况进行了评估,以便为未来研究提供指导。我们收录了 2015 年至 2021 年间在 15 种期刊上发表的 50 篇 SCRD(42 篇已审稿)。内容结果显示了心理咨询 SCRD 的几种趋势、优势和需要改进的地方。没有一项研究完全符合What Works Clearinghouse(2022)的设计标准或《行为干预单一案例报告指南》(SCRIBE)的报告标准,但有几项指标的遵守程度很高。我们讨论了如何加强实验设计过程以提高内部有效性,如何提高 SCRD 结果报告的透明度,以及将 SCRD 方法融入心理咨询领域的重要性。
