As most folks reading this are probably aware, autism is an active area for behavior analysis -- for both research and clinical work. I subscribe to the Autism Research Blog: Translating Autism partially because new behavioral research is likely to pop up from time to time. The latest post concerns research into using "cognitive-behavioral therapy" for children diagnosed with autism and anxiety (note that the participants were labelled "high-functioning", suggesting that children without the verbal skills thought necessary for CBT were not involved in the study).

Matt,
Did you see the criticisms of single-subject research design in an earlier post in the blog on pressure-vests?
I perhaps follow the critque of case-study in the particular of the reviewed research paper, but this further expands to criticism of ABA experimental designs as a general case within the comments.
