Resumen	Longitudinal reliability analysis evaluates the consistency and stability of measurement instruments across two or more time points. It extends classical reliability concepts — internal consistency, test-retest stability, and measurement precision — to repeated-measures designs, ensuring that observed score changes reflect true change rather than measurement error.	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.
