生命历程研究是横跨社会科学和人文学科的蓬勃发展的事业，特别是自20世纪60年代以来，但这项工作的历史根源至少可以追溯到世纪之交（Elder 1985; Sorensen et al. 1986）。新时代的特点是纵向样本数量的迅速增长，以及收集和分析生活史的创新技术。这部新作品最与众不同的是它意识到生活与时代之间的相互作用。要理解人生轨迹，就必须考虑正在发生的社会变化。不断变化的世界的事件、连续性和转变塑造了老龄化的途径。这项研究特别探讨了一个社会变革时代（第二次世界大战及其前十年的艰难时期）对经历过这一时期的男性的生活经历和职业成就的长期影响。利用美国最古老的纵向研究（Terman 1925）的数据档案，我们评估了这些男性（1904-1917年出生）的职业成就与群体成员、社会出身和战时动员的关系。通过不同的机会、资源和支持，这些人在20世纪30年代和40年代的生活阶段形成了历史环境对他们成就的独特影响。所有的男人都是女人
LIFE COURSE studies are a flourishing enterprise across the social sciences and humanities, particularly since the 1960s, but the historical roots of this work extend back at least to the turn of the century (Elder 1985; Sorensen et al. 1986). The new era is distinguished by a rapidly growing number of longitudinal samples as well as by innovative techniques for collecting and analyzing life histories. Most distinctive of the new work is its consciousness of the interplay between lives and times. To understand life trajectories one must consider the social changes underway. The events, continuities, and transformations of a changing world shape the pathways of aging. This research explores the long-term consequences of one era of social change in particular (World War II and the preceding decade of hard times) for the life experiences and career achievements of men who lived through that period. U sing the data archives of the oldest longitudinal study still active in the United States (Terman 1925), we assess the career achievements of the men (born 1904-1917) in relation to cohort membership, social origins, and wartime mobilization. Through different opportunities, resources, and support, the life stage of these men in the 1930s and 40s shaped the distinctive impact of historical circumstances on their accomplishments. All of the men are mem-
