The basic proposition underlying the approach is that human development takes place in a socio-historical context. It is argued that for a better understanding of the processes leading to positive adaptation despite the experience of adversity it is necessary to identify the interplay between individual and environment over time. Existing theoretical propositions for the study of resilience will be reviewed and integrated into a developmental-contextual systems model for the empirical study of adaptations in context and time.
According to the principle of linked lives, the misfortune and success of a family, for example, is shared through its members. Lives are lived interdependently and individual experiences are connected to the lives of significant others. Another key theme of life-course analysis concerns the timing of developmental transitions. The impact of earlier experiences and attainments on later outcomes cannot be understood without reference to issues of timing and transition patterns. For example, early life transitions such as entry into the labour market directly after minimum education, or early parenthood can affect subsequent transitions even after many years.
Knowledge about potential risk factors has been helpful in stimulating research into the processes and mechanisms by which these global risks influence individual adjustment clarifying conditions in which they show their effect and where they don’t. Plurality of meaning Another related concern addresses the plurality of meaning in evaluations of risk (Bartelt, 1994; Gorden & Song, 1994; Ungar, 2004b). It has been argued that the meaning of the constructs used for the identification of risk as well as the conceptualisation of resilience and Definitions 11 adjustment are relative, situational and attributional, whereby the constructs may have a greater significance to the researchers who define or investigate resilience, than for the person who experiences it (Gordon & Song, 1994).
