最大限度地减少参与者的流失对于纵向研究的成功至关重要。发展趋势研究（DTS）是一项针对破坏性行为障碍发展的纵向研究，在整个研究过程中实现了较低的流失率。早期保留策略的发展、通过使用电子数据库管理联系和安排历史、访谈员的坚持以及新电子搜索方法的出现都有助于我们研究的成功。描述了保留方法和维持参与者合作的实用解决方案的文献综述。提出了 DTS 的案例研究，以便为纵向研究人员提供用于维持高保留率的新方法的信息。
Minimizing participant attrition is vital to the success of longitudinal research. The Developmental Trends Study (DTS), a longitudinal study of the development of disruptive behavior disorders, has achieved a low attrition rate throughout the study. The development of early retention strategies, managing contact and scheduling history through the use of electronic databases, interviewer persistence, and the emergence of new electronic search methods have contributed to the success of our study. A literature review of retention methodology and practical solutions to maintain participant cooperation is described. A case study of the DTS is presented to inform researchers in longitudinal research on new methods used to maintain high retention rates.
