Hi Professor Granaas!

        The  observations that your student is collecting is indeed a problem. 
Because they are correlated (being collected over time), the standard
errors for the regression approach that he is planning to use are
probably too low creating type I error problems.  You should look into a
repeated measures type of design.  Given what he is trying to do, it is
difficult to suggest what steps he might take exactly.

        Hope this helps.
