Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Discrete trials involve a large number of trials completed by one or a few individuals and are used to describe basic behaviors. Choice B, A-B-A, and D, reversal, refer to specific experimental designs rather than a general small-n design. Choice C, baseline, is a component of many small-n designs, but it does not describe the design itself.
