Putting work and family experiences in context: Differences by family life stage (2010, background): “Whether or not workers have children, success in meeting work and family demands is likely to continue to be strongly related to success in other dimensions of life (Staudinger and Bluck, 2001).”
Gender and the Work-Family Interface: Exploring Differences Across the Family Life Course (2010, background): “Theoretical perspectives suggest that perceived success in meeting work and family demands during this life stage is likely to be strongly related to perceptions of success in other dimensions of life (Jung, 1971; Staudinger & Bluck, 2001).”
What Drives Adult Personality Development? A Comparison of Theoretical Perspectives and Empirical Evidence (2014, background): “For example, increasing numbers of adults are getting divorced, increasing the chances of remarriage and childbirth later in life (see Staudinger & Bluck, 2001, for detailed information on midlife development).”
Developmental Tasks as a Framework to Study Personality Development in Adulthood and Old Age (2014, background): “If society requires new contributions throughout midlife, be it in terms of work or social relations, we may find that midlife is no longer confined to maintenance of social roles established in young adulthood but may also require the establishment of new roles (e.g. Staudinger & Bluck, 2001).”
The wisdom of experience: Autobiographical narratives across adulthood (2005, background): “These individuals, just entering midlife, are often grappling with issues of exerting themselves toward multiple goals (Heckhausen, 2001; Staudinger & Bluck, 2001; Sterns & Huyck, 2001) in which self-determination and assertion play an adaptive role.”
