Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The movement from one stage to another within the family life cycle is known as a transition. Transitions can be both positive (such as the birth of a child) or negative (such as the death of a family member) and require adjustments and changes within the family system. Stress and adaptability are also factors that may accompany transitions, but they do not fully encompass the concept of movement between stages. Family reconstruction is not a term typically used in the study of family life cycles.
