Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Dr. McLean is using a cross-sectional research approach because she is testing people of different age groups at one point in time rather than following them over a period of time (longitudinal) or studying a specific cohort (cohort). "Latitudinal" is not a commonly used term in research methods.
