Opportunities for complementarity between longitudinal
studies
National Longitudinal Strategy Committee
Aim of the meeting:
The UK has rich resources in terms of longitudinal data. The aim
of this meeting is to draw attention to opportunities for research
which combines several longitudinal studies with different designs.
The morning focuses on existing UK studies while the afternoon
session extend more widely and bring in linkage between panel
studies and administrative records and also examines the
complementarily between quantitative and qualitative longitudinal
data. We end by looking forwards to new opportunities and new
demands.
