सारांश	Multivariate cohort research follows a defined group of individuals forward in time, collecting data on multiple exposures, outcomes, and covariates simultaneously. By applying multivariate statistical models — such as Cox regression, mixed-effects models, or structural equation models — researchers can disentangle the independent contributions of several predictors to one or more outcomes while controlling for confounders. The design is widely used in epidemiology, public health, psychology, and social sciences.	Panel research is a quantitative longitudinal design in which the same individuals, organizations, or other units are measured repeatedly across two or more time points. Unlike cross-sectional surveys that capture a single snapshot, a panel tracks change within units, enabling researchers to separate genuine within-unit change from between-unit differences and to model causal dynamics over time.
