One method used to demonstrate the reversibility of the effect of the independent variable is a(n) :

A) quasi-experimental design.
B) interrupted time series design.
C) control series design.
D) ABA design.

ABA Design

An experimental design in which participants first experience the baseline condition (A), then the intervention or treatment (B), and finally return to the baseline (A) to assess change.

Reversibility

The ability of a process or condition to be reversed or returned to its original state.

  • Comprehend the fundamentals and objectives of reversal and applied behavior analysis (ABA) designs in experimental studies.

Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
The ABA design (also known as withdrawal or reversal design) involves an initial baseline phase (A), followed by the introduction of the independent variable (B), and then the removal of the independent variable to return to the baseline phase (A). This design is used to demonstrate the reversibility of the effect of the independent variable by showing that changes in the dependent variable occur during the introduction of the independent variable (B phase) and then return to baseline levels when the independent variable is removed (A phase).
