    　View Summary

    This paper explores the historical changes in the transition to adulthood in twentieth century Japan, using the National Family Research of Japan 1998(NFRJ98) dataset. The study finds that through comparison of successive birth-cohorts, both later age of school completion (due to spread of higher education) and later age of marriage resulted in a delayed transition, retaining almost the same duration of a transition period. Order of the events has always been uniform through the second half of the last century. Leaving home used to synchronize well with the first job among those who grew up in Japan's economic booming era in the 1960s. Today, however, it synchronizes more with the first marriage among the younger cohorts. The final section discusses implications of these observed trends in light of changes in the Japanese family system as well as the life course itself. （管理者追加）リポジトリ登録情報を移行しました。確認のうえ、加除修正をしてください。
