我们研究了客观的生命历程结构和成人角色的主观时间感和成人身份的获得之间的关系。分层潜在阶级分析应用于青年发展研究的纵向数据，描述了17岁至30岁期间与学校、工作、家庭组建和生活安排相关的角色。在这个队列中，向成年的过渡是很好的代表了五个途径的概率映射这些角色的时间和顺序及其配置。三种途径的特点是从学校到工作的过渡，按时、延迟或忽略家庭的形成。其余的途径包括早期为人父母，要么有伴侣和稳定的全职工作，要么缺乏伴侣和低劳动力依恋。然后，我们表明，主观意义上的时间与某些成年人的角色和成人身份的收购经验联系在一起，这些生命历程结构。
We examine the relationships between objective life course structures and the subjective sense of timing of adult roles and acquisition of adult identity. Hierarchical latent class analysis is applied to longitudinal data from the Youth Development Study, describing roles related to school, work, family formation, and living arrangements from age 17 to 30. The transition to adulthood in this cohort is well-represented by five pathways probabilistically mapping the timing and sequencing of these roles and their configurations. Three pathways are characterized by a school-to-work transition with on-time, delayed, or negligible family formation. The remaining pathways involve early parenthood with either a partner and stable full-time work or the lack of a partner and low labor force attachment. We then show that the subjective sense of timing with respect to certain adult roles and adult identity acquisition is empirically tied to these life course structures.
