The correct answer is:
False.
Daniel Levinson´s model of the stages of a man’s life holds five central stages: pre-adulthood stage (age 0 to 22), the early adulthood stage (age 17 to 45), the middle adult stage (age 40 to 65), the late adulthood stage (age 60 to 85) and the late-late adult stage (age 80 plus).
The novice phase is only the first part of early adulthood. It includes the early adulthood transition (17-22) and the entering to adulthood (22-25) and it´s followed by the age thirty transition (28-33 years) and the culminating phase ( 33-44 years).
