Abstract
Utilizing an interaction-transaction perspective on perceived control within six life situations, a multivariate cohort study investigated patterns of interaction associated with 90 individuals representing different periods along the adult life course: adolescence, adulthood and retired adulthood. Two global hypothesized patterns were tested: (a) a pattern due to the individuals’ social age status regardless of situation; (b) a pattern due to the situation regardless of social age status. The results indicate neither hypothesis adequately portrays the complex interplay of life situations, social age status and sex status. The results are discussed in terms of the individuals’ differing transactional relations with the larger culture, sex status differences operating in conjunction with social age status differences, cultural change and cohort differences.
