e/Cross-sectional study

Information
has gloss	eng: Cross-sectional studies (also known as Cross-sectional analysis) form a class of research methods that involve observation of some subset of a population of items all at the same time, in which, groups can be compared at different ages with respect of independent variables, such as IQ and memory. The fundamental difference between cross-sectional and longitudinal studies is that cross-sectional studies take place at a single point in time and that a longitudinal study involves a series of measurements taken over a period of time. Both are a type of observational study. Cross-sectional studies are used in most branches of science, in the social sciences and in other fields as well. Cross-sectional research takes a slice of its target group and bases its overall finding on the views or behaviours of those targeted, assuming them to be typical of the whole group.

Meaning
German
has gloss	deu: In der empirischen Forschung spricht man von einem Querschnitt (z. T. engl. Cross-sectional data) bzw. von einer Querschnitt(s)studie oder Querschnittsdesign, wenn eine empirische Untersuchung (z. B. Befragung, Inhaltsanalyse) einmalig durchgeführt wird. So entstehen gesellschaftliche „Momentaufnahmen“ von derzeit gültigen Fakten, Meinungen oder Verhaltensweisen. Beim Querschnittsdesign verwendet man Zufallsstichproben, um die Repräsentativität zu gewährleisten.

Swedish
has gloss	swe: En tvärsnittsstudie ger en bild av en population vid en viss tidpunkt eller under ett kort tidsintervall. Man kan till exempel mäta prevalens av en viss sjukdom. Om man även mäter exponering för misstänkta sjukdomsframkallande ämnen eller mediciner kan det undersökas om exponeringen förekommer oftare bland sjuka än bland friska, man kan dock inte reda ut om sjukdomen eller exponeringen kom först.
