  1. What Is a Cohort Study?

    When to use a cohort study. Cohort studies are a type of observational study that can be qualitative or quantitative in nature. They can be used to conduct both exploratory research and explanatory research depending on the research topic.. In prospective cohort studies, data is collected over time to compare the occurrence of the outcome of interest in those who were exposed to the risk ...

  2. LibGuides: Quantitative study designs: Cohort Studies

    Cohort studies are longitudinal, observational studies, which investigate predictive risk factors and health outcomes. They differ from clinical trials, in that no intervention, treatment, or exposure is administered to the participants. The factors of interest to researchers already exist in the study group under investigation.

  3. Methodology Series Module 1: Cohort Studies

    The term "cohort" refers to a group of people who have been included in a study by an event that is based on the definition decided by the researcher. For example, a cohort of people born in Mumbai in the year 1980. This will be called a "birth cohort.". Another example of the cohort will be people who smoke.

  4. Cohort Studies: Design, Analysis, and Reporting

    Cohort studies are types of observational studies in which a cohort, or a group of individuals sharing some characteristic, are followed up over time, and outcomes are measured at one or more time points. ... 1 Department of Quantitative Health Sciences, Lerner Research Institute, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH.

  5. Overview: Cohort Study Designs

    The cohort study design is an excellent method to understand an outcome or the natural history of a disease or condition in an identified study population ( Mann, 2012; Song & Chung, 2010 ). Since participants do not have the outcome or disease at study entry, the temporal causality between exposure and outcome (s) can be assessed using this ...

  6. Cohort Studies: Design, Analysis, and Reporting

    Design, Analysis, and Reporting. Cohort studies are types of observational studies in which a cohort, or a group of individuals sharing some characteristic, are followed up over time, and outcomes are measured at one or more time points. Cohort studies can be classified as prospective or retrospective studies, and they have several advantages ...

  7. Research Design: Cohort Studies

    Abstract. In a cohort study, a group of subjects (the cohort) is followed for a period of time; assessments are conducted at baseline, during follow-up, and at the end of follow-up. Cohort studies are, therefore, empirical, longitudinal studies based on data obtained from a sample; they are also observational and (usually) naturalistic.

  8. LibGuides: Quantitative study designs: Introduction

    In clinical research, a study design is a plan for selecting study subjects and for obtaining data. These study designs fall into two different categories: Experimental. Observational. These categories are based on whether or not the investigators assign a particular exposure to a cohort.

  9. Cohort Studies: Design, Analysis, and Reporting

    Cohort studies can be either prospective or retrospective. The type of cohort study is determined by the outcome status. If the outcome has not occurred at the start of the study, then it is a prospective study; if the outcome has already occurred, then it is a retrospective study. 4 Figure 1 presents a graphical representation of the designs of prospective and retrospective cohort studies.

  10. Cohort Studies

    Abstract. This chapter describes the purpose and structure of the cohort study design within an overall framework of epidemiological study designs. It also describes the strengths and weaknesses of cohort studies. The chapter discusses the various types of bias that can arise with cohort studies, including measurement and observer error, and ...

  11. Case-control and Cohort studies: A brief overview

    Introduction. Case-control and cohort studies are observational studies that lie near the middle of the hierarchy of evidence. These types of studies, along with randomised controlled trials, constitute analytical studies, whereas case reports and case series define descriptive studies (1). Although these studies are not ranked as highly as ...

  12. Cohort Studies

    1 Introduction. Cohort studies are powerful tools and a suitable choice of study design to conduct research in human populations. Cohort studies are a type of nonexperimental or observational study design. The term cohort comes from the Latin word cohors, meaning a group of soldiers or a ship's crew [ 2 ].

  13. Cohort Studies

    A cohort study is a type of quantitative research. They are often described as "natural experiments" (Schmidt & Brown, 2019, p. 210). They are like case-control studies in reverse. In a cohort study, individuals are selected based on their exposure status.

  14. What Is a Prospective Cohort Study?

    When to use a prospective cohort study. Prospective cohort studies are a type of observational study often used in fields related to health and medicine. While most observational studies are qualitative in nature, prospective cohort studies are often quantitative, as they use preexisting secondary research data. They can be used to conduct both exploratory research and explanatory research.

  15. Cohort study: What are they, examples, and types

    Nurses' Health Study. One famous example of a cohort study is the Nurses' Health Study. This was a large, long-running analysis of female health that began in 1976. It investigated the ...

  16. Cohort study

    A cohort study is a particular form of longitudinal study that samples a cohort (a group of people who share a defining characteristic, typically those who experienced a common event in a selected period, such as birth or graduation), performing a cross-section at intervals through time. It is a type of panel study where the individuals in the panel share a common characteristic.

  17. What Is a Retrospective Cohort Study?

    Retrospective cohort studies are a type of observational study. They are often used in fields related to medicine to study the effect of exposures on health outcomes. While most observational studies are qualitative in nature, retrospective cohort studies are often quantitative, as they use preexisting secondary research data.

  18. What are cohort studies?

    Cohort studies are a type of longitudinal study —an approach that follows research participants over a period of time (often many years). Specifically, cohort studies recruit and follow participants who share a common characteristic, such as a particular occupation or demographic similarity. During the period of follow-up, some of the cohort ...

  23. Qualitative vs. Quantitative Research

    When collecting and analyzing data, quantitative research deals with numbers and statistics, while qualitative research deals with words and meanings. Both are important for gaining different kinds of knowledge. Quantitative research. Quantitative research is expressed in numbers and graphs. It is used to test or confirm theories and assumptions.

    Furthermore, the observational findings from prospective cohort studies exhibit considerable variation across different research endeavors . Therefore, it is important to consider the strength of the association and employ a quantitative approach to assess consistency (that is, between-study heterogeneity) when evaluating evidence.

    Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been predominantly conducted in populations of European ancestry, limiting opportunities for biological discovery in diverse populations. We report GWAS findings from 153,950 individuals across 36 quantitative traits in the Korean Cancer Prevention Study-II (KCPS2) Biobank. We discovered 616 novel genetic loci in KCPS2, including an association ...

    Many governments or research centers carry out longitudinal studies and make the data freely available to the general public. For example, anyone can access data from the 1970 British Cohort Study, which has followed the lives of 17,000 Brits since their births in a single week in 1970, through the UK Data Service website .
