Answer: Option D -- As the time interval under investigation increases, so does the potential for change in measurement.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since longitudinal research or study focuses on change in behavior over time. Therefore, as the time interval under investigation increases, so does the potential for change in measurement. On this wise, the correct option is D. Option A, option B and Option C aren't best defined longitudinal research.
