Preface

Welcome dear readers!

I am delighted to see that you have discovered this book - it suggests that you interested in single-case research and have begun to explore the scan package. This book pursues two maingoals: First, it is a practical manual for using the scan package in R. Second, it offers a comprehensive overview of methods and approaches to analysze single-case data.

While scan has undergone extensive development, this book is still a work in progress (approximately 60% complete) and I am continuously expanding its content. At present, there is no official release version - only this draft, which may contain errors.

If you have any suggestions for improving the book, wish to report a bug, or provide comments, feedback, and more, please visit the GitHub repository of this book and contribute here:

Thank you very much!
