The Life Course and the Stress Process: Some Conceptual Comparisons

Leonard I. Pearlin

The Journals of Gerontology: Series B, 2010, vol. 65B, issue 2, 207-215

Abstract: This paper compares the meanings and applications of concepts relevant to both the life course and the stress process frameworks. Some of these concepts bear the same labels but serve quite different scholarly agendas. Other concepts have different labels but have closely related applications. The purpose of this kind of comparative analysis is to help both fields clarify the conceptual tools needed to advance their scholarly goals. Copyright 2010, Oxford University Press.
