সারসংক্ষেপ	Longitudinal Cronbach's alpha assesses the internal consistency reliability of a scale at each wave of a repeated-measures study and examines whether that reliability remains stable across time. It is an essential step in longitudinal scale validation, ensuring that a scale measures its construct with consistent precision at every measurement occasion.	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.
