The cross-sequential design combines elements of both the cross-sectional and longitudinal research designs. In this design, multiple age groups are studied over a period of time (longitudinal) but data is also collected at one point in time from each age group (cross-sectional). By combining these two types of data collection, researchers can investigate both age-related changes (longitudinal) and cohort effects (cross-sectional).
