生命历程的定量分析必须处理相互关联的事件和轨迹的复杂模式。如此复杂的模式需要复杂的测量工具,即使只是为了描述群组的经验。本文讨论的方法论问题,从生命历程的角度来描述的过渡到成年,以下基于事件的定义。以意大利为例,提出了新的建议,并讨论了传统的办法。一个概括的幸存者函数的时间关系的分析两个事件的介绍和应用。然后,本文论述了作为一个整体来描述向成年过渡的过程的问题,利用序列分析方法,特别强调了“标准化与个性化”假设的实证分析。
The quantitative analysis of life courses has to deal with a complex pattern of interrelated events and trajectories. Such a complex pattern needs complex measurement tools, even if only to describe the experience of cohorts. This paper addresses the methodological issue of describing the transition to adulthood from a life course perspective, following an event-based definition. New proposals are developed and traditional approaches are discussed, using Italy as an example. A generalization of survivor functions for the analysis of the temporal relationships between two events is introduced and applied. The paper then deals with the problem of describing the process of transition to adulthood as a whole, making use of the sequence analysis approach with special emphasis on the empirical analyses of the ‘standardization vs individualization’ hypotheses.
