The field of education of deaf and hard of hearing (DHH) students has a paucity of evidence-based practices (EBPs) to guide instruction. The authors discussed how the research methodology of single-case design (SCD) can be used to build EBPs through direct and systematic replication of studies. An overview of SCD research methods is presented, including an explanation of how internal and external validity issues are addressed, and why SCD is appropriate for intervention research with DHH children. The authors then examine the SCD research in the field according to quality indicators (QIs; at the individual level and as a body of evidence) to determine the existing evidence base. Finally, future replication areas are recommended to fill the gaps in SCD research with students who are DHH in order to add to the evidence base in the field.

Executive Functions Assessment in a Child with Autism: A Pilot Single-Case Study from a Longitudinal and Mixed Methods Approach.
Children (Basel)
November 2024
Faculty of Education, Department of Psychology and Sociology, University of Zaragoza, 50009 Zaragoza, Spain.
Unlabelled: Although the literature confirms executive deficits in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) that hinder adaptation, evidence-based intervention programs targeting this area are scarce, and even fewer have evaluated their effectiveness.
Objectives: This study aimed to assess a pilot program designed to improve the executive functions of a child five years and nine months in age with ASD.
Methods: To evaluate the effects of the intervention, observational methodology was used, which is considered a mixed method in itself as it integrates both qualitative and quantitative elements in its various phases.

Background: Occupational therapists strive to provide evidence-based cognitive rehabilitation for everyday functional activities in community-based rehabilitation.
Objective: In this study, we investigated the effectiveness of the Perceive, Recall, Plan and Perform (PRPP) Intervention in enhancing and maintaining task performance and cognitive strategy use during home-based rehabilitation for individuals with cognitive challenges following acquired brain injury.
Material And Methods: This study is a systematic replication of a single-case experimental designs using multiple baselines applied to three participants (67+ years old) undergoing nine PRPP Intervention sessions.
Treatment of severe traumatic brain injury with human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell extracellular vesicles: a case report.
Brain Inj
January 2025
Direct Biologics, LLC, Austin, Texas, USA.
Objective: Extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from regenerative mesenchymal stem cells might safely treat traumatic brain injury (TBI). We evaluated the safety and efficacy of a human bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cell EVs (hBM-MSC EV) investigational product (IP) in a patient with severe TBI.
Design: A single case study employing an IP with a strong safety profile in over 200 patients.
Promoting psychological adaptability and well-being of patients with personality disorders with creative arts and psychomotor therapies: protocol of an intervention mapping study.

Introduction: Personality disorders (PDs) cause much suffering. In treating patients with PDs, it is important not only to focus on reducing symptoms, but also on promoting psychological adaptability and well-being. The experiential nature of Creative Arts and Psychomotor Therapies (CAPTs) contributes to working on psychological adaptability and improving well-being, although more evidence is needed.

Background: Receptive language, the ability to comprehend and respond to spoken language, poses significant challenges for individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). To support communication in autistic children, interventions like Lovaas' simple-conditional method and Green's conditional-only method are commonly employed. Personalized approaches are essential due to the spectrum nature of autism.
