Answer to Question 1

Longitudinal research is a procedure in which people of a given age are studied
repeatedly over time to measure their stability and change over time. Crosssequential
research involves examining several groups of people of different ages
repeatedly over time in order to examine age differences on a particular variable.
Longitudinal design uses a single group, whereas cross-sequential design uses
multiple groups of different ages. Advantages of longitudinal design over crosssequential
design are that it is simpler to conduct and analyze. Advantages of crosssequential
design over longitudinal design include that it can differentiate between
true changes due to age and effects due to cohort, or historical period.

Answer to Question 2

Students should compare and contrast campus and home values and then identify
campus values not present at home and home values not present on campus.
