Resumo(s)
Over the life course, individuals develop personal networks that provide
essential resources, sporadically or on a daily basis, such as instrumental, emotional,
and informational support. Those personal networks are composed
of family (i.e., primary and extended kin) and non family ties (i.e., friends,
colleagues, acquaintances) (Pahl and Spencer 2004). The prominence of specific ties varies across the life course depending on life stages, transitions,
and events. Following the linked-lives principle (Elder et al. 2003), these
transitions trigger changes in household composition, promoting different
types of relational interdependencies. The level of interdependence with
some household members may have a cumulative effect by strengthening
the bonds, whereas with others the effect may be more ephemeral and lead
to the exclusion of such ties in current personal networks. Thus, coresidence
trajectories, such as the experience of growing up in a two or one-parent
family, leaving the parental home early or late, moving in with a partner or
Iiving alone, becoming a partner, divorcing, and other events, will differentially
influence the composition of personal networks.
