One major issue in longitudinal studies is selective attrition.
“One major issue in longitudinal studies is selective attrition (Baltes et al., 1988; Schaie, 1977).”

Assessing practice effects inside a longitudinal design is a difficult modeling exercise requiring assumptions because longitudinal designs explicitly targeting practice effects are rarely employed.
“Assessing practice effects inside a longitudinal design is in and of itself a difficult modeling exercise that requires a number of assumptions, because longitudinal designs explicitly targeting practice effects are rarely employed (see Baltes et al., 1988; McArdle & Woodcock, 1997).”
From Enrichment Effects on Adult Cognitive Development: Can the Functional Capacity of Older Adults Be Preserved and Enhanced? (2008) · cites this paper as Baltes et al., 1988
First-generation training studies found substantial training gains in practiced tests among healthy older adults.
“(a) Training gains in the practiced tests among healthy older adults are substantial (i.e., they roughly correspond to the amount of naturally occurring longitudinal decline between 60 and 80 years of age);”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
