Micro-Theory of the Life CourseBody / Genes Organic development / maturation and functional aging
Cognitive development and cognitive decline
Psyche Personality development
(temperament, coping styles, extroversion-introversion,
control beliefs)
Actor / Interaction Social norms for life phases
(infant, child, adolescent, adult, old age)
Age norms for transitions / chronological and
subjective age (on-time, off-time)
Biographical projects, continuity and consistency
Life goals, life designs
Self-regulation
(gains and losses, selective optimization with
compensation, persistency, domain specificity)
Consolation prizes, cooling out

Causal Micro-Theories of the Life Course
Resource accumulation and resource conversion:Status attainment and human capital
Disadvantages and handicaps
Critical life events, turning points (e.g. midlife crisis)
Protective factors, vulnerable conditions(e.g. early marriage, delayed marriage)
The children of the Great Depression:Accumulation and accentuation / social deprivation and the army
Switching points(Magnusson‘s early menarche girls, Grundmann‘s sons of stepfathers, early marriage and the intergenerational transmission of divorce
Age and Deliquency(Sampson / Laub’s replication of the Glueck study and the effect of marriage)

Changes in American Family Structure as the Result of Improved Life Expectancy 1900-1976
The probability that... 1900 1976
1) A child would experience death of a parent by age 15.
24% 5%
2) Marriage would end in widowhood before the 40th anniversary.
67% 36%
3) A 15-year-old would have 3 or 4 living grandparents.
17% 55%
4) A middle-aged couple would have at least 2 of their parents alive.*
10% 47%
* The demographic shift changes the idea of what a family is. Adapted from: Uhlenberg, 1980
