Ecological Validity

Longitudinal studies have high ecological validity due to conducting studies in real time.

Longitudinal studies allows researchers to see the long term effects of something in a study.

Deeper understanding

Because the longitudinal study lasts for a long time, it allows you to understand how a phenomenon changes over time.

A strength of a longitudinal study is that the data being collected would be more accurate since it’s being tested over a long period of time.

You are able to identify patterns and trends over a long period of time

Longitudinal studies help people see how things change over time. Like if I wanted to know if mewing increases rizz over time. I could mew every day for 5000 months and then we could measure aura.

A advantage of a longitudinal study is that you can collect and view changes in data over years.

Since they occur over a long period of time, they have the potential to include a great amount of data and are very informative.

Longitudinal studies can report long-term causation of an independent variable (as an experimental designs) or provide rich data for long-term analyses. Longitudinal studies are the only studies that can truly use time as a third variable that evaluates effectivity of a variable being studied. For example, in Hölzel et al, the longitudinal design showed that MBSR was effective after the two week analysis (post MBSR)
