Resumé	A longitudinal semi-structured interview study collects open-ended, guided interview data from the same participants across multiple time points. By returning to the same individuals — weeks, months, or years apart — researchers can trace how experiences, perceptions, and meanings change over time. The approach blends the flexibility of qualitative inquiry with the temporal depth that is impossible in a one-shot design, making it a cornerstone method in qualitative longitudinal research.	A longitudinal survey collects structured questionnaire data from the same individuals or units at two or more distinct points in time. By tracking the same respondents across waves, researchers can distinguish genuine change from stable individual differences, establish temporal ordering between variables, and model trajectories of attitudes, behaviors, or outcomes in ways that a single cross-sectional snapshot cannot support.
