Daniel Levinson created a model of adult development that focused on life structures. A life structure consists of new developmental challenges and tasks through the periods of adulthood. For example, getting married is a new life structure. The individuals have to adapt to the new life, which consists of new family members, roles, tasks, and responsibilities. This new life structure takes time to adjust to the challenges and tasks associated with the role of becoming a husband or a wife.
