Description

Various effect-size indices for assessing treatment effects with single-case data have been proposed. The purposes of the present study were to synthesize research findings from single-case studies published in the Japanese Journal of Special Education, and to review the effectiveness of those treatments. Age and diagnosis of participants and target behaviors in 51 studies selected from the journal were categorized in order to assess the influence of these variables on effectiveness of the treatments. Effect sizes calculated from the data for each individual case were (a) percentage of non-overlapping data (PND; Scruggs, Mastropieri, & Casto, 1987), (b) Busk and Serlin's (1992) effect size approach 2 (ES_BS2), and (c) effect size (ES_C; Center, Skiba, & Casey, 1985-1986). The results indicated that the categories of 13- to 18-year-old participants, participants with autism, social skills, and academic skills contributed to the effect size in the studies surveyed.
