Encuesta transversal

La encuesta transversal es un diseño de investigación epidemiológica de uso frecuente. Se utiliza en investigación de mercados y sobretodo en aspectos médicos. Se trata de estudios observacionales, también llamados encuestas de prevalencia. El diseño de una encuesta transversal debe considerar aspectos relacionados con la población que se estudiará, los sujetos de quienes se obtendrá información y la información que se busca captar.
