Although stress occurs at every stage of life, much research
studies its effects over short-term periods, typically within
circumscribed life stages. Little attention has been given to the
possibilities that the consequences or impact of stress depend
critically on the timing in the life course in which the individual
is exposed to the stress, and that the sequence of prior stressors
acts as a context for these effects. This book attempts to map the
influence of early stressful experiences on later life outcomes,
studying the trajectories of stressors over the life course. It
examines the ramifications of stressful events at key life-course
transition points, and explores the diversity of outcomes for
individuals who have suffered through trauma. Finally, the book
suggests methods for study of stress and adversity through the life
course, where issues of timing, ordering and sequencing of
stressors are crucial.
