Longitudinal wave

study design that begins with an examination of a presumed cause and then goes forward in time to observe presumed effects: also called a cohort design” (Polit, 2015, p. 389). Another one is observational longitudinal research “studies that do not involve an experimental intervention and longitudinal study designed to collect data at more than one point in time” (Polit, 2015, p. 384). Furthermore, in the descriptive cross-sectional study, “research that typically has as its main objective the…

way is through observation in cross-sectional and longitudinal studies. Cross-sectional studies allow researchers to compare different population groups at the same time (“Cross-sectional Studies vs. Longitudinal Studies,” n.d.). So, if a psychologist wanted to see how many words on average a 2 year old says, he could randomly select a certain number of children who were the same age and observe them to get the information he was seeking. Longitudinal research is utilized when a researcher…

would choose to study a cohort of fifty, 30-year-old inmates of both genders who would be released after 15 years during the study. A longitudinal study would allow me to be able to visit and converse with them, get information about how they live their lives behind bars and also study how they would cope with their return to society. According to Novak, 2012 “Longitudinal studies look at age cohorts or individuals over time” (p. 41). With how fast technology has been improving and growing in…

a person automatically thinks of experiences in terms of the future, present, or past, influenced when a student signed up for a study. They went on to further investigate whether students who were future-oriented were more likely to complete longitudinal studies than present-oriented…

Tiet et al. (2001) study argues that IQ is a protective factor for youth, where maternal psychopathology is a risk factor for youth and children. Tiet et al. (2001) states that a higher IQ benefits youth with coping with adverse life events because they are more likely to critically think and problem solve. These children and youth are better at equipped with using their experience to positively shift their mental thinking (Tiet et al., 2001). Youth with higher IQ are able to think more…

of interest with the funding source. Since a cross-sectional study allows different variables at the same time, in relation to ADHD and perceived relationship quality, to be compared with little cost it seems more practical to choose it over a longitudinal study. I will also be taking an inductive approach to my research. After the collection of data, it is examined for patterns that may assist in developing a theory that could explain those patterns. The target population of my sample is clear…

Each longitudinal study focused on a different stage of life; The Michigan Longitudinal Study (MLS) focused on early childhood, the Adolescent/Adult Family Development Project (AFDP) on early adolescence, and lastly the Alcohol and Health Behavior Project (AHBP) focused on early adulthood. Each longitudinal study had a slightly different research method used to collect the data. The design of the MLS study…

primarily based on Sinusoidal waves and how to use and apply this to represent and develop musical notes. In doing so, I had to use a variety of properties of trigonometry for the key aspects in this artifact. Such as, building an instrument and finding out the relationship between sound waves and the sinusoidal representation. Sinusoidal is any graph mainly consisted of either the sine or cosine function. The general formula for Sinusoidal waves is y=Acosfx+C.The height of the wave of this…

GRAVITATIONAL WAVES, HOW CLOSE ARE WE? PHSCS 222 Collective Paper November 23, 1999 #123 #272 #666 #895 The Detection of Gravitational Waves, How Close Are We? Since the realization that the general theory of relativity predicts gravitational waves, there have been attempts to actually detect these waves. Indirect observations have been made that support their existence but no direct measurement. This paper gives a brief explanation of gravitational waves and discusses the…

The Hōryū-ji Temple remain located in Nara prefecture Japan, is the oldest existing timber structure; dated from 607 AD. The temple’s construction is held up by structural elements called the Dougong, which are placed on top of large, firm and stable vertical pillars, to support the weight of upper stories, roofs and eaves. The Dougong is composed of overlapping wooden brackets; the ‘Dou’: a block placed on a column, creating space for multiple bow-shaped arms; ‘gong’, to be interlocked, which…
