个案研究与单一被试实验研究的应用比较

The Comparison of Case Study and Single Subject Research

从概念、特点、过程、研究设计这四个方面比较了个案研究与单一被试实验研究,得出以下结论:(1)个案研究与单一被试实验研究同时具有单个案研究的优点和缺点,同时适用于样本量小和样本异质性大的研究;(2)个案研究倾向于质的研究,而单一被试实验研究倾向于量的研究;(3)个案研究在科学性和规范性方面不如单一被试实验研究;(4)单一被试实验研究在中国(除台湾外)的应用非常少,理论相对研究不足。

This article compares case study and single subject research from four aspects： the concept,characteristics, process, and study design. And finally it sums up the following conclusions：（1）These two research methods both have the advantages and disadvantages of single case study, and are suitable for the small sample size and sample heterogeneity larger research：（2）Case study tend to qualitative research, single subject research, on the other hand, tend to quantitative research;（3） Case study have problems in scientific and normalization;（4） The application of single subject research is very rare in China（except Taiwan）, and the theory research of this method is relatively insufficient.
