Proposed Endeavor

The petitioner proposes to develop novel approaches to solve complexities in the multilevel analysis of single-case experimental and group comparison designs for both simulated and real data. This work aims to improve meta-analyses, which serve as primary sources of reliable evidence for facilitating clinical practices and informing public policy decisions.

Framework Evaluation
