Single-Case Treatment Mediators

The innovative aim of the intended research project is to develop novel concept and methods to study individual treatment mediators in youth with mental health problems, by unifying single-case research methodology and statistical mediation analysis. Interdisciplinary (pedagogics/psychology and methodology), multi-method (qualitative and quantitative) and (inter)national approach is implemented with clinical partners and experience experts’ contribution.
