What is Agency and Life Course Expectations about?

The document discusses the need to conceptualize agency within the life course as having two dimensions: perceived capacities and perceived life chances or expectations about the future. Using data on adolescents, the authors explore how a general sense of optimistic life expectations in addition to traditional measures of efficacy can influence later outcomes. They find that including expectations provides a more multidimensional understanding of subjective agency and its effects over time.
