Summary

In this chapter we review the considerations that influence sample design for longitudinal surveys, the range of sample design options available, and research evidence regarding some of the key design issues. We attempt to provide practical advice on which techniques to consider for different types of longitudinal surveys, where they are most likely to be effective, and what pitfalls to avoid.
