Extending the Single Case Analysis and Review Framework (SCARF-UI): A review and discussion.

Single-case experimental design has been increasingly represented in research over the past several decades. Increasing rates of publication, combined with unique features inherent in single-case research, have complicated efforts to synthesize published literature. This work reviews technical challenges associated with single-case research synthesis and how tools such as the Single Case Analysis and Review Framework (SCARF) can supplement these efforts while retaining critical features of visual analysis. A web-based user interface for the SCARF (SCARF-UI) is presented, described, and accompanied by a guide on its use and relevance to behavior analysts and other single-case design researchers. This free and open-source software is reviewed and presented with training materials and demonstrations of prior research reviews completed using SCARF. Additional discussion is also provided regarding avenues for increasing consistent appraisal of behavior analytic research.
