Резюме	Longitudinal test-retest reliability quantifies how consistently a scale or measure performs across two or more time points in a longitudinal study. It extends the classic test-retest paradigm by accounting for planned, often substantive, time lags between waves — making it essential for validating instruments used in panel, cohort, or growth-curve research.	Longitudinal confirmatory factor analysis (longitudinal CFA) applies a theoretically specified measurement model to data collected at two or more time points. Its primary purpose is to verify that a scale measures the same latent construct in the same way over time — a prerequisite for drawing valid conclusions about change from repeated-measures data.
