Lebenslagentabellen
Lebenslagentabellen, also known as "table of life phases" or "life stage tables," are tools used primarily in demographic and social sciences to categorize and analyze the different stages of human life. These tables provide a structured overview of the typical age ranges associated with various life phases, such as childhood, adolescence, adulthood, and old age. They serve as a reference for understanding demographic trends, planning social services, and conducting research on population dynamics.
The concept of Lebenslagentabellen has its roots in demographic studies that aim to simplify the complexity
These tables are useful for policymakers, social scientists, and health professionals as they facilitate the analysis
While they are primarily used in European contexts, particularly in German-speaking countries, similar concepts are applied
