Abstract

In dem Artikel fokussieren wir Potenziale und Herausforderungen, die sich bei der Nutzung der Situationsanalyse für die reflexiv-relationale Übergangs- und Lebenslaufforschung ergeben. Es wird erörtert, wie Übergänge als Transformationsprozesse im Lebenslauf visualisiert werden können und wie Mapping als Reflexionsinstrument eingesetzt werden kann. Wir verstehen Übergänge als prozesshafte Gebilde, in denen Transformation verhandelt wird und untersuchen, wie diese mithilfe der Situationsanalyse nicht nur als statische Situationen, sondern auch in ihrer komplexen Prozesshaftigkeit abgebildet werden können. Wir diskutieren Übergangs- und Reflexions-Maps, die von CLARKEs Situationsanalyse angeregt sind und damit die Herausforderung, Prozesshaftigkeit darzustellen.

Nach der Diskussion einer situationsanalytisch inspirierten Mapping-Strategie für die Untersuchung von Übergängen im Lebensverlauf stellen wir eine mögliche Innovation von Maps anhand eines Projekts vor. Mit diesem Ansatz wollen wir Veränderungsprozesse nachzeichnen und die Verbindungen zwischen verschiedenen Dimensionen und Akteur*innen in diesen Ereignissen analysieren und mappen. Wir reflektieren verschiedene Mapping-Strategien, die im Projektkontext entwickelt wurden, um räumlich-materielle und zeitlich-prozessuale Aspekte, ihre Potenziale und Grenzen sowie den Forschungsprozess zu untersuchen.

Zusammenfassend bleibt das Mapping von Prozessualität eine Herausforderung und ein wichtiges Feld für zukünftige Forschung. Situationsanalyse und Lebenslaufforschung zusammenzudenken eröffnet Forschenden Möglichkeiten, die Prozessualität von Situationen konzeptionell besser zu fassen und hierfür verschiedene Mapping-Verfahren zu erproben.

Autor/innen-Biografien

Karla Wazinski, Goethe University Frankfurt/M.

Karla WAZINSKI studied social work/social pedagogy in Koblenz and educational science at Goethe University Frankfurt/M. Afterwards, she worked as a research assistant in various research projects in the Department of Educational Science at Goethe University Frankfurt. Since 2022, she is a doctoral candidate in the Emmy Noether group Linking Ages––The Material-Discursive Practices of the Un/Doing Across the Life Course, funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) [German Research Foundation]. Her expertise and research interests include qualitative social research, in particular situational analysis, housing and (housing) transitions as well as un/doing of age and the construction of age boundaries in the life course.

Anna Wanka, Goethe University Frankfurt/M.

Anna WANKA studied sociology and law at University of Vienna, where she finished her PhD in sociology in 2016. From 2009 to 2016 she worked as a junior researcher in the research group "Family, Generations, Life Course, and Health" at the Department of Sociology in Vienna. Between 2017 and 2021 she was a postdoctoral researcher in the DFG-funded interdisciplinary research training group "Doing Transitions" at Goethe University Frankfurt/M., where she is now part of the consortium. In this group she worked on the project "Doing Retiring—The Social Practices of Transiting into Retirement and the Distribution of Transitional Risks" and contributed to the establishment of a broader practice-theoretical framework on transitions from childhood to later life. Between 2020 and 2021 she additionally held a postdoctoral position on mixed-methods research at University of Stuttgart. Between 2021 and 2022 she was a deputy professor of political sociology of social inequalities at Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich. Starting in 2022, she is leader of DFG-funded Emmy Noether research group Linking Ages––The Material-Discursive Practices of the Un/Doing Across the Life Course, funded by DFG. Her areas of expertise comprise the social practices of "un/doing age," life course transitions / retirement and the re/production of social inequalities across the life course, aging and technologies, age-friendly cities and communities, aging migrants, and lifelong learning. Theoretically she is specialized in practice theories, in which she was trained in the postgraduate program "Sociology of Social Practices," as well as through several international research fellowships. She is competent in both qualitative and quantitative methods and has high expertise in mixed-methods research.

Maya Kylén, Lund University

Maya KYLÉN, PhD in medical health science, specializing in gerontology, is a researcher at Lund University, Sweden. She belongs to the "Applied Gerontology Research Group," affiliated to the Center for Ageing and Supportive Environments (CASE). She is also affiliated to the research group Environment, Technology and Participation at Dalarna University. Her research interests include integrated care, housing, health, and well-being among older adults. She is involved in several national and international interdisciplinary research projects focusing on late life transitions, how economic aspects influence housing choices and relocation patterns in older age, and how the built and social environment can be supported by a person-centered rehabilitation process at home among people with stroke.

Björn Slaug, Lund University

Björn SLAUG is associate professor in health sciences at the Faculty of Medicine, Lund University. He is a member of the research group "Active and Healthy Ageing," affiliated to the Centre for Ageing and Supportive Environments (CASE=. In his research he focuses on the built environment and how it can be designed or adapted to support active and healthy aging. He has a background in public health research and has extensive experience from methodological research, particularly concerning person-environment fit issues. He is currently involved in several national and international research projects related to the relationships between the built environment and different aspects of health, often from a public health perspective.

Steven M. Schmidt, Lund University

Steven M. SCHMIDT is associate professor of medical psychology at the Faculty of Medicine, Lund University. He leads the "Applied Gerontology Research Group" and is the coordinator for the Centre for Ageing and Supportive Environments (CASE). In his research he focuses on the relationships among the environment, health/function, and psychosocial factors in the aging population. He predominantly takes a public health approach in collaboration with inter- and trans-disciplinary teams. To increase the relevance and impact of research findings, most projects include active user involvement (e.g., government agencies, policy makers, industry, older people).
