Longitudinal research is a research design in which data-gathering is administered repeatedly over an extended period of time. For example, we may survey a group of individuals about their dietary habits at age 20, retest them a decade later at age 30, and then again...

Essentially individual group members loaf and let other group members pick up the slack. Because each individual’s efforts cannot be evaluated,...
