The cross-sectional method used to study play patterns of children :
Answer: B
The cross-sectional method is good to understand how children play at different ages with one another.
A cross-sectional study observes different groups of children of different ages at the same time, for example three, four and five-year-olds, and compares them. It shows quickly how play patterns differ with age.
Studying the same group of children at different times is the longitudinal method, described in option C. The cross-sectional method is not always better than the longitudinal one, because it cannot show how individual children change, and it has no built-in bias towards a favourable picture of play.
