Faculty of Social and Political Sciences (FISIP) Universitas Padjadjaran Research Advocates for Longitudinal Studies in Public Policy

A research team from the Faculty of Social and Political Sciences (FISIP) Universitas Padjadjaran is advancing a new methodological approach to enhance public policy research, particularly for complex challenges like public health. This conceptual work has been published in the journal Medical Teacher (a Q1-ranked journal).

The authors argue for a greater integration of longitudinal studies within administrative science. They highlight that this method, which tracks changes over extended periods, offers a more dynamic and accurate understanding of cause-and-effect relationships compared to static, single-point observations. By providing this robust, evidence-based framework, the research paves the way for policymakers to develop more effective and impactful public health interventions.
