Simulation-assisted cross-sectional research

Simulation-assisted cross-sectional research combines the one-time, population-wide snapshot of a classic cross-sectional survey with computational simulation — such as agent-based modelling or Monte Carlo methods — to extend what can be inferred from data collected at a single point in time. Empirical cross-sectional data calibrate the simulation, which then explores counterfactuals, rare subgroups, or dynamic processes that the survey alone cannot reveal.
