概要	Longitudinal confirmatory research combines the temporal depth of longitudinal design with the hypothesis-driven logic of confirmatory analysis. The researcher specifies a priori hypotheses or structural models about how variables change or remain stable over time, then tests those predictions against data collected at two or more time points. It is the design of choice when theory is mature enough to make specific predictions about developmental, causal, or stability processes.	Longitudinal model testing research combines repeated measurement across time with formal, a priori structural modeling to confirm or disconfirm hypothesized relationships among constructs. Rather than simply describing change, it tests whether a pre-specified theoretical model — typically a structural equation model or growth model — fits observed data collected at two or more time points. This design supports causal inference more convincingly than cross-sectional approaches by capturing temporal ordering of variables.
