Multiple time-series designs refer to the use of more than one set of data that were collected over time, as in accident rates over time in several states or cities, so that comparison can be made.

Multiple-alternative questions refer to kind of questions written such that the possible response alternatives are restricted.

Multiple-baseline across behaviors refers to a Multiple-baseline design in which the initial Baseline phases correspond to two (2) separate behaviors for the same participant.

Multiple-baseline across situations refers to a multiple-baseline study in which the initial Baseline phases correspond to the same Behavior in two (2) separate situations.

Multiple-baseline across subjects refers to a multiple-baseline study in which the initial Baseline phases correspond to two (2) separate participants.

Multiple-baseline design refers to a type of single-subject design that begins with two (2) simultaneous Baseline phases, then initiates a treatment for one baseline, and at a later time, initiates the treatment for the second baseline; a design in which a treatment is instituted at successive points in time for two (2) or more persons, settings, or behaviors; and a design in which different behaviors or different people receive baseline periods of varying lengths prior to the introduction of the independent variable.

Multiple-cutoff approach refers to a selection strategy in which applicants must meet or exceed the passing score on more than one selection test.
