sequences of sample, each studied longitudinally. They are not foolproof. Provides less information about continuity than a full longitudinally study. More time consuming. People are tested, then maybe tested again three years later.
Strength: provides some info about continuity of development. EX: Whether aggressive six year olds are aggressive nine year olds. You can tell if the study has practice or cohort effects as well.
Sequential means "next". The exact answer will depend on the context.
A sequential order is when you use first, finally, last, and more.
sequential
Sequential refers to something commonly described to follow a sequence. A sentence would be something like, "I like the way the Christmas lights are sequential with the different color flashes", or "The power grid can not be turned off there, the line is sequential and if I knock out this one, they all go down".

Cross sequential studies combine both longitudinal and cross sectional methods in an attempt to both shorten the length of the research and minimize developmental assumptions

what is the strengths and weaknesses of sequential study
cohort-sequential
A longitudinal cohort study involves studying a specific group of people over an extended period of time.
A longitudinal study is a study that goes on for a long time. An example of this method of research would be an ethnography.
A cross sequential design is a research method that combines both a longitudinal design and a cross-sectional design. A longitudinal design involves studying people throughout their years and can be pretty expensive and obviously, time consuming. The cross-sequential design involves studying many people with a common characteristic (such as all being in the same age group) at the same time. Combining these two methods shortens the time common of longitudinal studies and rule out cohort and developmental assumptions.
A longitudinal study and a cross-sectional study are methods of collecting scientific data. A longitudinal study is the method that gathers data on a subject for a particular period of time and the subject's response to particular variables. A cross-sectional study is where more than one subject is used for the collection of data at different points in time in response to particular variables. These types of studies are sometimes used to determine correlation.
in psychology terms what is a naturalistic experiment and a longitudinal study?
1) prospective study 2) Case-control study 3) Retrospective cohort study
A potential bias of the longitudinal Dunedin Multidisciplinary Health and Development Study, conducted in 1972-1973, lies with:
