Answer to Question 1

After determining the unit of analysis of your study, you must select a time

frame: cross-sectional or longitudinal. Cross-sectional studies are based

on observations that take place at a single point in time; these studies

focus on behavior or responses at a specific moment. Longitudinal

studies are concerned with what is happening over a period of time or at

several different points in time; they focus on processes and social

change.
