Abstract
Group-based experimental designs employ random assignment, statistical probability, and sample size to establish causality between measured variables. While such programs of study are helpful when evaluating and comparing treatment effectiveness in large populations, small-n designs complement traditional large-group experimental paradigms by providing individual-level response to treatment/intervention, which is highly valued when exploring challenging phenomena within child and adolescent sexual development. This chapter aims to broaden the methodological repertoire of existing clinicians and researchers operating in the field of child and adolescent sexual development through the introduction of the most frequently employed small-n methods, and includes examples and considerations for normative and problematic sexualized behavior of children and adolescents.
