Book excerpt: "So far in this book we have reviewed the role of measurement to help in monitoring your client's progress and in evaluating your effectiveness using single-system research designs. Our discussion included an overview of the basic principles of reliable and valid measures, the principles related to using measures in practice, and issues regarding interpreting scores.
