Levinson's Model as a Predictor of the Adult Development of Policemen.

Fagan, M. Michael; Ayers, Kenneth, Jr.

International Journal of Aging and Human Development, v16 n3 p221-30 1983

Investigated adult development of police officers compared to the development of subjects in Daniel Levinson's study. Interviews with 23 male police officers indicated that their lives generally corresponded to Levinson's theory. The nature of subjects' psychosocial stages was similar to Levinson's model for some age periods, but not all. (Author/JAC)
