ABSTRACT

In chapters 6 to 8 we provided macros to run within three different packages to carry out randomization tests on the designs we listed in chapter 5. There are various alternative sources of descriptions of experimental designs suitable for analysis using randomization tests and software for carrying out such tests. Some are distributed in books and journal articles, some are in statistical packages dedicated to tests of this kind, and some are included in well-known general statistical packages. Although we know of only one statistical package specifically designed for use with single-case data, most packages containing randomization tests include some that can be applied to those single-case designs for which analogous group designs exist. In this chapter, we provide a brief, nonexhaustive summary of sources. In the case of journal articles and books, apart from those that we have had occasion to cite, we confine ourselves to providing details of a bibliography that is available via e-mail or World Wide Web. In the case of packages, we indicate features that seem to us to relate to their usefulness for the purpose of making statistical inferences about data from single-case and small-n designs, but we do not attempt anything approaching systematic evaluation of the packages.
