What are the major types of secondary analysis?
What will be an ideal response?
here are several ways to classify the types of secondary analysis. When considering the number of databases used, secondary analysis may be classified as a cross-sectional study or a longitudinal study. Cross-sectional studies capture one moment in time. Exploratory and descriptive studies are often cross-sectional. Longitudinal studies are designed to allow for observations over an extended period of time, and include trend studies, cohort studies, and panel studies. Trend studies investigate changes within a general population over time, cohort studies examine specific subpopulations over time, and panel studies are similar to trend or cohort studies, but investigate the same set of people each time.
