Cohort replacement occurs because people who come of age in different time periods may have different experiences and therefore different attitudes or beliefs compared to those who were born in different generations. This is different from age replacement (A), which refers to changes in attitudes or behaviors that occur as people grow older, regardless of when they were born. Cross-sectional (C) and panel (D) studies both involve collecting data from the same group of people at different points in time, but do not specifically address cohort replacement.
