The term 'mid-life crisis' is increasingly used both in everyday speech and in the professional literature as an explanation of certain disturbing psychological symptoms and uncharacteristic behaviour in middle age. This paper outlines the symptoms and the causes presumed by a wide range o f literature (mainly American) to underlie them. It then examines empirical research for evidence of the existence and nature of the phenomenon labelled 'mid-life crisis' and, finding little, proposes alternative explanations for its symptoms and for the emergence and use of the concept in recent years. It concludes with an examination of implications for guidance and counselling. |
